First Four Legionnaires in the Union Station’s West Hall Restored

December 19, 2017 by Diana Tisue

We’re excited to share that the recent restoration of Union Station’s historic legionnaires makes this project the first of our ten Heineken Cities Project to be fully completed! This pilot restoration kicks off the restoration of all 46 legionnaires in the Great Hall. Years of dust and locomotive debris were peeled off the statues and the results are really amazing. Pictures are worth a thousand words, so check out these behind-the-scenes shots of the restoration process.

This May, our Preservation Month theme is “People Saving Places” to shine the spotlight on everyone doing the work of saving places—in big ways and small—and inspiring others to do the same!

Celebrate!
