The Depot is the last of the grand nineteenth century depots remaining on the transcontinental railroad--one of the best articulated examples of the Richardsonian Romanesque style in the West, designed by one of America 's most distinguished architects at a pivotal point in his practice. It formed a strategic point along the Union Pacific Railroad, America's first transcontinental rail line, and was easily the Union Pacific's most grandiose facility west of its starting point at Council Bluffs.
