Gare Windsor

Downtown · Railway station / Romanesque · Free

This is the city's great statement of railway-age confidence: a hulking 1889 Richardsonian Romanesque station in rough-faced grey stone, all heavy arches and solidity. Trains no longer use it, but the concourse survives. Step in to read the muscular stonework and the great hall, free.
