Episode Synopsis "Bagg's Square East | Part II - The Jewel of Bagg's Square"

In the 2nd of our three-part tour, we focus on the jewel of Bagg's Square - also known as Union Station.  Widely regarded as one of the most beautiful train stations in the US, Union Station holds it's own amazing stories as a point of departure for thousands of soldiers during the WWII, the home of the nation's 2nd oldest functioning Barber Shop and a story surrounding some of the architectural pillars. Were they replicas inspired by Grand Central Station - or were they made FROM the same project that became Grand Central Station?  Be sure to visit https://uticadetour.com to view our tour as you listen with an immersive Google Earth Experience or through Google StreetView.
