Union Station is a historic station at Depot Street in Palmer, Massachusetts. It was originally designed by American architect H. H. Richardson in 1883 (although some sources claim it was also built in 1881 and 1885) and was one of the largest in his series of Northeastern railroad stations. Frederick Law Olmsted designed the landscape around the station, which was used by the Central Vermont, Boston and Albany, and New London Northern Railroads.[2] Today it operates as the "Steaming Tender" restaurant. Additionally, several antique trains are on display nearby.[3]
