Under the Terminal Station Dome at the Chattanooga Choo-Choo.

Perhaps the most iconic building - along with its sign - in this city, the Chattanooga Choo Choo complex has evolved over time from a gateway to the world to a hotel and entertainment center.

As the Choo Choo complex evolves once again, let’s look back as we prepare for all aboard into the future - in our latest conversation in collaboration with Preserve Chattanooga, the historic preservation nonprofit in this city.

Todd Morgan is executive director of Preserve Chattnaooga.

Justin Strickland - who works for the City of Chattanooga - is a board member of the Chattanooga Historical Society, and the author of the book “Chattanooga’s Terminal Station.”
