CharlesB writes "It was one grand old building! Now, all
the statuary has been removed, once elegant restrooms have been smashed. When
they clean it up for a special event, they have to bring in port-a-pottys. In
the last decade, as public awareness of its historical value grew, the cops have
kept a closer watch on it. Before then it was a derelict's dream come true." and
"I would have liked to have seen it during WW II when civilians and troops were
all on move. Heavens knows how many different train lines used it. Engines of
all different colors and logos. I think that the only other railway building in
New York State as opulent and busy was Grand Central."
