"Shortly thereafter [the fire that destroyed the first Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe depot in San Bernardino], city leaders asked the railway to design and build an impressive new depot that would befit the city image as the 'gateway to southern California.' The resulting $800,000 depot, designed by company architect W.A. Mohr, was the largest west of the Mississippi. Upon its opening on July 15, 1918, the San Bernardino Daily Sun proclaimed 'Santa Fe's station to be the finest in the west,' and 'a credit to San Bernardino for showing the importance of the Gate City as a transportation center.'"
