Hotel El Jardin
Title:  Hotel El Jardin
Description:  While the Mo-Pac Depot has long been torn down and was in the space of where the brown building is on the right, the matching facade that exactly matched the Mo-Pac Depot is still standing. The sealed up arches lead to covered platforms [2 tracks] and beautiful tropical gardens that adorned the grounds next to the depot. Today all of the surrounding blocks that were open have been developed and paved over.
