Heritage Plaza, Railroad district in Albany, Georgia.
Heritage Plaza encompasses structures from the 1800s including the Tift Warehouse, Union Station depot, and Railway Express Agency building along Albany's brick street.
The Union Station depot, constructed in 1913, served multiple railroad routes such as Seminole, Flamingo, and Southland until passenger service ended in 1971.
The Thronateeska Heritage Center maintains the plaza's structures while operating a history museum, science museum, and railway car exhibition for educational purposes.
The facility includes a research archives department, collections storage, and a 40-foot full dome HD planetarium system open to visitors throughout the year.
The Hilsman Kitchen, moved to Heritage Plaza in 1977, belonged to one of Albany's first physicians and stands next to the REA building.
