Union Depot Bar & Grill

Preserving Historical Significance through Innovative Kitchen Design

Many challenges were faced to properly provide a functional kitchen for the staff while observing the building codes required to have the building still be listed among those of historical significance. Equipment was selected that was either vent-free or channeled through a sophisticated pollution control unit that funnels it out of the back of the building. Thus preserving the  structural integrity and original design of the building.

Even paint schemes and the original ticket counters were preserved in the design, making this one of the most beautiful historic depots left standing in the U.S. Only now the space is also a draw for parties, special gatherings, and dining out.

Configured into the commercial kitchen hood system for channeling exhaust through the back of the building preserving it’s status as an official historic building. Also visible is the long draw glycol unit that keeps the beer cold from the walk-in to the beer tower at the bar.
