LUGARITZ STATION

This the recently opened Lugaritz Station of Donostia's metropolitan train. A lot of photographs of this station in the Euskotren/Euskotran official threadthread (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=73221&page=18&pp=20).

This is South Station, Boston. Sorry for the googled images that are fuzzy-looking. They don't allow pictures being taken inside. 4th one is taken by ItsConanOBrien of ArchBoston who was able to sneak a few shots. South Station has a nice mix of old and new. The 1st pic shows South Station from the back with the silvery color. That part of the building shows departure time and such on digital billboards. 2nd pic shows it from the front.

The Istanbul one is in a fantastic location, just a pity about the Silo's to it's left.

It was built by a german architect ;) Btw you're right with the silo.Next to the station there is a port, that's why there is a silo.But within 3-5 years the whole district will be renovated and the port will be moved to a suburb.They also want to make a hotel out of this amazing station and build a new central station for high-speed trains on the europan continent since both sides will be connected with a underwater railway tube.

That will be the new station on the european continent

yeah, it probably would echo a lot. I'd imagine they can put some unintrusive damper material behind those supports. the roof is designed to open as well, so that could help on sunny days.

of course, we'll see if that added feature really gets built. still, its great no matter what, especially considering most of it is underground

The small Tucson, Arizona train station was built in 1907: There are only a couple of trains a week that stop on their way from Chicago/Texas to Los Angeles. The train station has been renovated and will soon host a new restaurant.

I admit that the terminal building shouldn't have been demolished, but Pennsylvania RR was facing bankruptcy, so it was bought by the owner of MSG in 1965. However, the underground station was rennovated to improove for Amtrak, LIRR, and NJ Transit as well as a hub for the subway with the 1, 2, 3, A, C, and E trains. An underground concourse was added, and I have to say that it has more places than the nearby Manhattan Mall that I have been going to for a while. This is what the underground concourse of the new Penn Station looks like.

The worst part about Penn Station is that above one of the escalators, they have this schematic of the old Penn Station that says "You are here" underneath. :mad:

Haydarpasa Train Station, Istanbul:

Turkey's largest and most magnificent railway station, Haydarpasa was built in the early 20th century by the German architects Otto Ritter and Helmuth Cuno. A monument to the close Turkish-German relations of the time, the station is in neo-renaissance style and has a U-plan. The inauguration ceremony took place on 19 August 1908, just after the proclamation of the Second Constitution.

The façade is revested in textured sandstone, and the main façade overlooking Kadikoy Bay rests on a foundation of 1100 timber piles. The steep pitched roof is slated, and the interior is decorated with trailing foliage cartouches and garlands, and stained glass window. The ceiling of the circular room at the base of the southeast tower has ribbed vaults, and the upper landings have groin vaults. Flights of marble steps lead up from the quay to the monumental façade flanked by circular turrets with conical roofs, clock tower rising in the form of a crest at the centre, baroque decoration, balconies, moulded cornices, and pilasters.
