Now that Ed has posted that picture, I guess the question becomes are we asking about that structure or what seems to be the current facility?

The photos Ed posted are of the old Jacksonville Union Terminal (built round 1900 and last used in the early 1970s; since renovated and converted into a convention center and tourist attraction). The Amtrak station is about 5 miles away and was designed in the mid 1970s using a taco stand as an inspiration.

Not entirely sure what the OP wants info on . . .

PS  I was born in Jax, and I have actually travelled by train from that old terminal. Typical style and glamour of those grandiose vaulted civic buildings of yore.
