Aerial view of construction at Washington Union Station.
During its renovation and rehabilitation in the mid-1980s, a large parking structure was added over the train sheds behind Washington Union Station. This 1980s aerial view shows the construction. Today, the garage offers more than 2,000 spaces. Amtrak photo from the collection of John Carten.
