Just came back from a conference in Washington, and their Union Station is absolutely stunning. The shops and restaurants are well done and in good taste, and it's clear no expense was spared to restore the building to its prime condition. Clearly a model for us to follow (wasn't one of the old contenders for the Toronto contract the company that worked on the DC station?). And note that DC's Union Station is still a very active train station, with Amtrak (which I rode in from New York), MARC and Virginia Express trains using it, as well the Union Station subway stop on the Red Line. Just a gorgeous building.
