Old Anaheim Railroad Station

Fantastic piece of history here that very few people know about in Anaheim. I would love to see this place restored and reused as a Metrolink Station. It's in a fantastic location for a Metrolink Station and is near Downtown Anaheim, which has been growing in popularity over the last several years, with new developments in the area. Its tragic that this historic building is not being utilized to fulfill its original purpose.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, GORGEOUS!!! It actually began construction in 1917, however, the US joined the Great War that same year, and construction came to a screeching halt! Construction didn't resume until 1922, but was completed in 1923.

**Highly recommend reading the New York Times article, linked on this page (thank you to whoever posted it!).

Personally, I feel like it should be converted into a museum rather than a metro station... I just feel like certain smaller nuances inside might need to be "modernized" (meaning, destroyed/replaced) in the pursuit of such a business venture. I just hate to see when all that's left of a historic building is only just the "outer shell" and nothing more... Additionally, I feel a small museum would be more "community freindly" than a bustling Metrolink station.

Whatever becomes of it in the future, we can certainly all agree that this building MUST remain standing, for as long as the city of Anaheim exists!

(Just say NO to property developers and their "projects"; they are the scum of the earth, whose greed and lust for destroying history, knows no bounds...)
