5/8/2023

"Located at 531 Northeast First Avenue, the Ocala Union Station, also known as Union Station Plaza, was built in 1917 by both the Atlantic Coast Line (ACL) Railroad and the Seaboard Air Line (SAL) Railroad. Before constructing the station, the ACL and SAL had separate depots in Ocala.

The ACL station was built by the Florida Southern Railroad around 1895 and was used until the Union Station opened, when it was converted to the district office of the rail system.[1] The building was demolished in the 1960s. The SAL was built in the late 19th century by the Florida Transit and Peninsular Railroad." Source: Ocala Union Station
