Union Station, still commonly known as Shannon Mall, is a shopping mall in Union City, southwest of Atlanta along Interstate 85. It is the only major shopping mall located on the growing southwest area of metro Atlanta. [http://www.joneslanglasalle.com/microsites/retail_pdfs/factsheets/Shannon.pdf Location Information] The name was changed from Shannon Southpark Mall in 2007, after new ownership and renovations came in 2006.
