 Union Station is in downtown Erie on West 14th Street between Peach and Sassafras streets . Designed by architects Alfred T. Fellheimer and Steward Wagner , it was the first Art Deco railroad station to be designed and built in the United States . Previously , Fellheimer had been influential in the design of Grand Central Terminal in New York City , and both architects collaborated on several railroad stations for the New York Central Railroad , including Buffalo Central Terminal in 1929 and Cincinnati Union Terminal in 1933 .
