charge, to patrons of the Union Sta-
tion lines for conferences and other
meetings.
To give some idea of the immensity . ,
of the new station, it may be stated t>ut were unable to find the fine,
that the main building covan an area
of about three acres with a concourse
covering 30,000 square feet. The t
tire terminal facilities cover more tt
86 acres and will expedite the prom
and satisfactory handling of 50J)
passengers, 400 tons of baggage and
800 trains dally with rookn for future
expansion. Fifteen acres of glass
were used in the various coverings
over the train sheds, which extend
more than L200 feet beyond the main
structure. A total of 17,000 tons of
structural steel, 175,000 cubic feet of
Indiana limestone and 10,000 cubic
feet of granite were used in the sta-
tion building and concourse. The foun-
dation consists of 449 cylindrical con-
crete piers from four to ten feet in
diameter, reaching to a depth of more
than 60 feet below the level of the
Chicago river.
Those who have had the privilege
of inspecting the new station pro-
nounce it a marvel in terminal' con-
struction and are urging their friends
to see it on their next vlrit to Chicago.

ure and benefit
The station is without doubt one of
the finest and most efficiently designed
railroad terminals in the world. It
forms a vital link in the realization of
the “Chicago City Beautiful Plan.” Sim-
plicity, accessibility and convenience
for the traveling public are the .essen-
tial virtues of the new terminal. Rest
and recreation rooms, ticket offices,
barber shop, dining rooms, storeg of
various kinds, and almost every con-
venience known to travelers, are to be
found on the one level, no steps to
climb.
The main station is a low monumen-
tal type of building with a row of
massive columns of classic design
along the entire east front. Once in-
side, the traveler finds himself in a
gigantic waiting room more than 100
feet high and brilliantly lighted
through skylights in the great arch

the walls of which are patterned after
