E and TH depot on SE 8th St. The Evansville and Terre Haute (E and TH) Railroad depot at Eighth and Main Streets was built in 1903 and 1904 and replaced the old Union Station on the corner of Eighth and Main Streets. It was later renamed the Chicago and Eastern Illinois (CandEI) Depot aft the E and TH was bought out. In the early 1930s, when the CandEI was taken over by the Louisville and Nashville (LandN) Railroad, this depot became redundant. It subsequently served as a USO Club, a community center, and even a car dealership. When the site was chosen for the new Evansville civic center complex, the depot's time was up. The four Ionic columns in front of the depot were salvaged when the depot was razed in the 1960s; they were integrated into the Four Freedoms Bicentennial Monument located on the riverfront, just beyond the foot of Walnut Street.
