Lauren

I mentioned earlier that I was wanting to explore more south of the Crossroads. And to that end was Makenna at Freight House and Bailey up on Main immediately north of the tracks.

Around Union Station, I'd of course seen plenty of women I wanted to photograph, but the opportunity never presented. Tonight I was exploring more of the inside of Union Station. And down on level B is a theater and Lauren was waiting for a friend near the concession stand.

Union Station does have a photo permit requirement. And I'll confess that I didn't have one tonight. But Lauren was the only person I photographed in Union Station tonight while I was walking around. A single-day pass is $25. But the annual pass, good for 12 months, is only $200. (It is separate from a membership.) (Update 2026-05-10: I have purchased an annual photo pass.)

And with how easy Union Station makes it go obtain a photo permit - you can just buy it online - really there isn't any excuse to not have one, even if you're a hobbyist.
