Beautiful book! The illustrations alone make the book a gem. But the story is touching as it tells of how Pennsylvania Station was built and then later destroyed once autos became the main means of transport. Though most readers have obviously never been in the station, once its destruction becomes apparent you are saddened because of the way the author has described its design and construction and impact on those who moved through it on a daily basis.
