The construction of the Union Terminal, which was to be the hub of all incoming passenger and locomotive traffic, proved to be the most memorable undertaking of the Van Sweringen brothers. Over 104 acres were cleared, 2,200 buildings were demolished, and 15,000 persons were displaced. The Terminal Tower has remained the defining feature of the Cleveland skyline since its completion in 1930. | Source: Shaker Historical SocietyDownload Original File
