West side view |
| Description: |
For a long time, Id been driving through Joplin, and seeing the station there. It is, and was, a beautiful building. Finally I decided to take a few minutes and shoot some photos. This is the view from outside the fence on the northwest side of the building. |

Platform shelter |
| Description: |
This was an interesting structure. There was a covered walkway to the main building. Presumably, riders would use this to await an imminent train with some shelter from the sun and rain. Doesnt look like too many people could stand under it, through. On the other hand, this aint exactly Penn Station. |

The depot was designed by Kansas City architect Louis Curtiss. Curtiss designed more than 200 structures, but Union Depot established his reputation as a “pioneer in fireproof concrete construction”.

Joplin Union Depot |
| Description: |
Leading up to Union Depot was a covered walkway, or “Port Cochere.” On November 3, 1969, the last train visited Union Depot. Now, the depot sits idle, fenced off, its walls adorned with graffiti. Hopeful individuals have been trying to save and restore the building for decades with little to no success. In 1973, the building was nominated by the Centennial Commission, Union Depot becomes the first building in Joplin to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. |
