For over 98 years, Union Station has welcomed people to the most powerful city in the world. This magnificent building has played host to 17 Presidents and countless foreign dignitaries. However, what may be most impressive is the fact that Union Station's marble floors echo with the footsteps of over 25 million people each year, making it the most visited site in all of Washington, D.C.
Serving as a gateway to the United States capitol, Union Station is a significant architectural landmark that sits just steps away from the House and Senate office buildings and in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol building. World-class exhibitions and international cultural events are hosted here for the public to enjoy. Private special events such as the Presidential Inaugural Ball and citywide galas are celebrated in the grand halls.
The Burnham Place project will serve as an extension of the grandeur and excellence that has made Union Station one of Washington, D.C.’s premier attractions.
