        .@BeschlossDC The long ago Penn Station was magnificent. This one is a fork in the eye and punch in the throat...every day.

        @BeschlossDC The fact they decorate the new, crappy station with pictures of the old has always been deeply offensive to me.

        .@BeschlossDC Think w/o the propaganda & glamour photos, think many would actually prefer new Penn Station for most areas of station.

        .@BeschlossDC IMO, "waiting room" (pictured over trash receptacle) was one of worst rooms I've ever been in.

        .@BeschlossDC Very poor proportions (too long, narrow & high), too much stone and almost no color.

        .@BeschlossDC Problem w/ new area pictured (aside from demo), is that it too is kind of "cold." Could use some high-design color, "flair."

        @BeschlossDC Actually, a good metaphor for the decline of beauty, art and grace in today's "culture".
