Description: Kansas City, MISSOURI - Union Station: Kansas City Union Station (station code: KCY) is a union station opened in 1914, serving Kansas City, Missouri, and the surrounding metropolitan area. It replaced a small Union Depot from 1878. Union Station served a peak annual traffic of more than 670,000 passengers in 1945 at the end of World War II, quickly declined in the 1950s, and was closed in 1985. In 1996, a public–private partnership undertook a US$250 million restoration, funded in part by a sales tax levied in Kansas and Missouri counties of the Kansas City metropolitan area. By 1999, the station reopened as a suite of attractions, including museums. In 2002, Union Station returned to train service, when Amtrak began public transportation services, and became Missouri's second-busiest train station. The refurbished station has theaters, ongoing museum exhibits, and attractions such as Science City, the Irish Museum and Cultural Center, and the Todd Bolender Center for Dance and Creativity. Since 2016, it is a stop for the KC Streetcar. This Linen Era (1930-45) postcard is in good condition. E. C. Kropp. Milwaukee, Wis. No. 12308.
