A warm evening glow radiates from the flanks of Union Pacific's beautiful Boise, Idaho depot. Construction of the Spanish Mission-style building was completed in 1925, featuring a grand boulevard plan with direct access to the Idaho state capitol building. The lush Howard Platt Gardens east of the station were dedicated the same year by the city of Boise.
