As you know, Rick is doing a fantastic job covering the big Union Station redevelopment project here at the DenverInfill Blog. He usually includes in each post a photo or two of that day’s construction progress. But those photos represent just a few of the many photos that Rick and other DenverInfill photo contributors are taking of the DUS project. Now you can view all of our Union Station photos in a neatly-organized format, thanks to my friend Brian Sweeney at JobSiteVisitor.com.
JobSiteVisitor.com is a photo-hosting website specifically designed for the construction industry. The service helps construction projects organize, manage, and share progress photos. Brian has created a special page at JobSiteVisitor for all of DenverInfill’s Union Station project photos—and it’s totally free and accessible to the general public.
The photos are organized by week and include shots taken from about a dozen fixed locations throughout the Union Station project site, as well close-up and other special photos. With JobSiteVisitor, you’ll be able to conveniently browse through the thousands of photos that Rick and others will be taking over the next four years to watch the transformation of the Union Station project from a big hole in the ground to a finished transit hub.
We’ve got two week’s worth of photos uploaded now, so here we go!! Click here to visit our DenverInfill Union Station page at JobSiteVisitor.com.
Nicely done! Very cool.
Can anyone explain how buses coming off I-25 on the flyover that parallels 20th will access the new underground bus station? Will they zig-zag though LoDo to enter the station by the new Fastrax station near the Union Pacific RR tracks or will there be a tunnel off the end of the ramp and under the tracks behind Union Station connecting to the new station? I certainly hope for the latter. Also, will the Bus Station at 20th and Arapahoe be closed when this new bus station is completed?
Dan, RTD buses will come in on the flyover as they do now and just past 18th Street, right at the edge of the historic station, the bus lane will go below grade and enter the new RTD Bus Terminal.
The terminal at 20th and Arapahoe is the Greyhound station, and they declined to participate in the Union Station project.
Ken, thanks for the reply. Very happy about the RTD bus access solution. It will be interesting to see this develop since it has to go under tracks and other (future) structures. Too bad about Greyhound – seems like they might have hurt themselves but maybe they can be picked up later.
