Plans for Union Depot on Georgia Property
Governor Candler approves contract with Bradford Gilbert to draft preliminary union depot plans for the state's property to test space adequacy. The project aims to show how many tracks and waiting areas can fit, with Gilbert to submit plans to railroad authorities for about $100, following a conference where Southern and Central officials questioned space size. President Spencer declines to renew the railroad state proposal for a union station, citing business concerns and financial implications.
