Re: (rshsdepot) Nashville Union Station

["Paul Luchter" <luckyshow_@_mindspring.com>]

Isn't there any sort of re-use of platforms and sheds and canopies...it seems weird that they would restore the station and give
nary a whiff of a thought about the sheds out back...Couldn't something like that be converted to an open air market? Kiosks on the
platforms, and even in the former roadbeds...
too late now
