Talk:Union Station (Columbus, Ohio)

untitled

Columbus? What state? It doesn't say Ohio until well into the article and then about a nearby college. There are a few cities named Columbus.

• I second the motion. All in favor? The motion carries. It now says Columbus, Ohio in the introduction. george 06:03, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Renamed the title too. george 06:06, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I think that the geographical location given at the bottom of the article is wrong. When you go to those coordinates, It shows near Nationwide Arena. The arena is at the former Ohio Penitentiary site. The Union Station complex was closer to High St. and the Columbus Convention Center
