Chicago Union Station had its own "urban renewal" era mistake too. While the Great Hall remains, the old headhouse was a beautiful place that had better connections to what turned into the Blue Line. Torn down to sell the air rights for some soulless modern office tower, with travelers relegated to diesel soot filled, low ceiling rat mazes. It retains some of its dignity, but not all.
