Description In 1897 the third Union Station was opened in Columbus. Daniel H. Burnham & Company from Chicago was the designer of the building, and construction actually began in 1894.In 1928 part of the arcade was removed to provide more automobile parking, and in 1931 the train shed was removed to be replaced with a smaller concourse.After train service began to decline in the 1950's through the 1970's, it was decided to demolish it entirely. On October 22, 1976 the main arcade was torn down even though it had been listed with the National Register of Historic places just a couple years earlier. The demolition began before preservationists had an opportunity to stop it. By the time a judge issued a restraining order, the only piece left was this arch.It was moved from its original location to McFerson Commons to be put on display when the 'Arena District' was being developed. The Arena District, including the land upon which the arch is located today is where the Ohio Penitentiary once stood.
