        still an absolute travesty what they did with this old station - hopefully Penn Station can be restored to its former greatness soon

        Penn was in sad shape when it was demolished, filthy and a victim of a hideous interior "remodel." The artists and architects knew what was being lost, the public not so much.

        Surely they could have found a better site for a new Madison Square Garden - but wasn’t our favorite Cheeto involved in this deal somehow?

        That's some serious Ansel Adams zone system going on there.

        1942? What about wartime blackouts...?

        Must have been early 1942 (war was declared in December 1941) - obviously we didn’t expect to be bombed. But I think I remember reading that it took the east coast a while to realize how much they endangered the merchant marine by keeping their lights on.

        Love the lighting in the picture. The patience to get that right look. Or maybe luck? ❤👏

        Looks like a place that definitely needed a little demolition.
