The Railyards is uniquely positioned to revitalize the downtown core and restore a lost connection to an urban treasure – the historic site where early settlers worked to connect the West to the rest of the nation. 

The redevelopment will transform the 240-acre Union Pacific Railyards into a dynamic urban environment with a 21st century mass transit hub to serve residents, workers and visitors while celebrating the significance of the area as the birthplace of the western terminus of the 1869 Transcontinental Railroad. 

Designed as a regional destination, The Railyards will offer a vibrant, urban atmosphere with entertainment venues, retail establishments, mixed-use high-density housing, office space, theatres, open space, riverfront amenities, parks, hotels and museums.
