Description: This is a drawing of the Ohio Capitol building in Zanesville, Ohio. The building was constructed 1809-1810, and in 1810, Zanesville replaced Chillicothe as Ohio's capital until 1812, after which the capital returned to Chillicothe. Later that year, Columbus became Ohio's capital. The building in Zanesville closely resembled the statehouse in Chillicothe, but was built in the Federal Style, which incorporates more refined architectural staples, rather than the Colonial Style, which is characterized by plainer architectural design.

Description: This photograph shows the facade of Union Station, located at 380 North High Street in the Short North neighborhood of Columbus, Ohio. An elderly man walks by with his hands in his pockets. Designed by the famous Chicago architectural firm Daniel H. Burnham and Co., the building was Columbus's third Union Station. It opened in 1897, and the arcade was completed two years later. By the mid-20th century, train ridership had declined sharply, and in October 1976 all but one arch of the ornate facade was demolished. The station continued to offer Amtrak service until April 1977, but it was demolished in September 1978.
