Approach Cincinnati Ohio Terminal
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the approach to Union Terminal railway station in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, during the 1940s. The scene is bathed in a warm, golden light, casting long shadows of the towering trees and their vibrant autumn foliage across the lush, green grass. The majestic Union Terminal building comes into view, its grand architecture a testament to the era's engineering prowess and design sensibilities. The Union Terminal, a National Historic Landmark, was built between 1933 and 1935, and served as the primary intercity railroad station in Cincinnati until the late 1970s. Its Art Deco style, characterized by geometric shapes, bold colors, and ornate detailing, is evident in the sweeping curves and intricate patterns adorning the building's facade. As the train approaches, the station's large, arched windows reflect the surrounding landscape, creating a stunning mirror image. The railway tracks, lined with trees and grass, lead the way to the terminal, evoking a sense of excitement and anticipation for the journey ahead. This photograph is a beautiful snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich history of transportation in America during the 1940s. The blend of nature and architecture, the play of light and shadow, and the sense of movement and progress make this image a true treasure.
