Shops, Restaurants and BarsĪt Union Station’s center is the Great Hall, a sweeping room full of elegance and nostalgia. In what amounts to a love letter to Colorado, Union Station brings together so much of what the state is known and adored for. The result, unveiled in July 2014, is a vibrant gathering place bursting with history as well as promise. The visionary behind the revitalization, Dana Crawford, is an urban preservationist who kept a keen eye on moving forward while preserving the landmark’s past.
