A grand Beaux Arts masterpiece designed by Daniel Burnham, Union Station has been a defining part of Washington DC since its opening in 1908. Originally envisioned as the capital’s primary railway hub, it became a site of national significance—welcoming dignitaries, hosting historic arrivals and departures, and standing as a testament to the city’s enduring spirit. Following its restoration under the Redevelopment Act of 1981, Union Station reemerged as a vibrant mixed-use complex and one of the city’s most celebrated private event destinations.

Today, under the direction of Design Cuisine, this architectural treasure continues to set the stage for DC’s most dynamic gatherings—where history, hospitality, and artistry come together in a truly distinctive setting.
