There are plenty of places to eat and have a drink in and around Union Station (breakfast spot, coffee spot, at least 2 bars I'm aware of, etc). It really is a nice place to both begin and end trips. It is hard to explain but I'm sure you'll know what I'm talking about when you see it. It is also a nice place to get some work done. There are plenty of places to sit and plug in. Keep in mind that the bathrooms downstairs are open to the public so you may see some interesting things and individuals there.

I LovE Denver's Union station.

I love Cooper Lounge upstairs where you can get a classy espresso martini and have an elevated experience and watch the activity below. There is so much going on in all of the various wings of this place! A hotel, other restaurants, at Christmas there is a holiday popup in the basement, a ticketing station, etc! I've really only been to the main area and love the new beautiful installment of Pigtrain Coffee. I love the fancy pistachio pastry dessert at Baumé and the Christmas tree decor this past year was AMAZE. I feel like it represents a standard that people will experience throughout Denver in their travels like if they just arrived there via Union Station or are relatively new. It's a vibe of quality that permeates throughout.

Convenient stop to get to Fiddler's Green for a concert. Just that the last train is too early to stay for the entire concert usually. So better to drive. But I took a train for the light rail and just left the concert early. My friend dropped me off at the train station but it directed her to the parking garage across the highway so I had to take the elevator up to the crossing enclosed bridge and down the stairs on the other side. Well lit, just lonely. The train platform had some people waiting but they left on the train before mine. There were some people just hanging out and I made sure to be aware as I didn't like the loitering. I don't know if I recommend that station. It's a bit too lonely for my tastes. Didn't feel quite safe. No businesses nearby and no Rtd police. Made me re-think my decision.

You can take the light rail (train), bus, or even the Bustang to and from here. Never heard of the Bustang, but it is a bus service that travels between Denver and Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, and other cities. I parked on E. Layton Ave. since it was closest to the tunnel where the art is at instead of in the Park-n-Ride lot. This lot has around 50+ spots. You'll have to check the signage to see if you need to pay or not. If you can find street parking, it is free for up to 2 hours. Other options are nearby parking garages that are free for the first 3 hours, but then will cost you ($25 max). Since I only came here to see the art installation in the tunnel, it suited my needs to park on the street. "Thunder Over The Rockies" by Richard Elliott, Commissioned by RTD art-N-Transit 2006. It's located in the pedestrian tunnel north of the station. The material of choice are road reflectors; about 4,000 of them! The colors are red, yellow, blue, green, and white. I'm not sure what time of day or night is best. I went in the afternoon. It was not sunny out. I found it a little difficult to see the reflectors "lit up". It was neat to see the geometric designs making great use of what would be just a dreary tunnel. It has native influences in the mosaic art. According to the RTD website, this is "The first reflectorized art tunnel in the world:" I would have taken the train or bus to any other station, but time didn't permit. It would have been cool to see all 30 art installations in the Denver area! You can ride free during July & August because of the "Zero Fare for Better Air" Campaign.

Same as many of the others layout wise. At this particular stop you have sixty or so parking spaces. Across the highway another hundred. Who doesn't love a good bridge over rail and highway traffic? Last stop so it'll take awhile to wait. Little to no shade so check train times before heading out. Sure in Winter the snow and wind will be miserable while waiting here. On the plus side they do have bike storage. Some nice art commissioned by RTD (the plow) and the stop was designed well for Uber, Lyft, Taxi, and busses. Wide lanes so even in winter months maneuverability is maintained. Park and ride across the street via the foot bridge. Guess they have a poor AM / PM system for that. (Via Brian's review) Know they are still working out some kinks. Better than nothing but we can't expect them to be Chicago or Bay Area Rapid Transit overnight.

It was installed in 2006. I couldn't find much information about this online. There's a riddle you're supposed to solve ( https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rtd-southmoor-station-denver?select=hVUIr1N8WBWyO1l8-tTvig ) and walk by the speakers in an order. Since I was only going to be here one time, I wanted to be sure I activated the speakers correctly to create the sounds in order so I could hear the melodic tune. Don't think I was successful... People are constantly on their way to or from the station and have to walk through this tunnel. The cacophony of noises emanating from the speakers was music to my ears for the short time I heard it. I can see how it might be bothersome to some people. It was sporadically busy during the entire time I was there. I was getting stared at because I was trying to activate the speakers and record the sounds. I was probably in the way of travelers. Some of the pillars play bells ringing and others play sounds from nature like birds squawking & chirping. TIP: You need to pass by fairly close to the speakers to activate them. Just as I was about to give up, a nice sequence of dings, chirps, squawks, & bells began to play! I think the "Art" had mercy on me or it was programmed to play at certain intervals. I was happy no matter the case! ( https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rtd-southmoor-station-denver?select_video=T5lK28lo7pp8eZOjPIICcw ) As for the station, this is the Southmoor Station. It's located on S. Monaco Pkwy. Light Rail trains & buses are the mode of transportation here. This is a Park n Ride. If you are catching a bus, you just catch it from near the parking lot. If you are catching a train, you need to go down the stairs or ramp, through the tunnel, and go up the stairs or take the elevator to get to the platform. The tunnel crosses underneath the I-25. I would have taken the train or bus to any other station, but time didn't permit. It would have been cool to see all 30 art installations in the Denver area!
