Synopsis "New York's Original Penn Station: The Rise and Tragic Fall of an American Landmark (Landmarks) (in English)"
In early twentieth-century New York, few could have imagined a train terminal as grandiose as Pennsylvania Station.Sandhogs would battle the fiercest of nature to build tunnels linking Manhattan to New Jersey and Long Island. For decades, Penn Station was a center of elegance and pride. But the ensuing rise of the airplane and automobile began to diminish train travel. By the mid-1960s, the station was tragically destroyed. The loss inspired the birth of preservation laws in the city and the nation that would save other landmarks like Grand Central. Author Paul Kaplan recounts the trials and triumphs of New York's Penn Station.
