Featured Project Description:
The Cincinnati Union Terminal (1933) is one of the most significant Art Deco buildings in America. Following the decline of the railroads, the Terminal deteriorated and was threatened by demolition after a series of unsuccessful reuse attempts. In 2005, the Museum undertook a national search for a design team to help create a vision and address a number of pressing issues, ranging from deferred maintenance to obsolete building systems, and need for new uses to enhance visitor experience.
