However a quick Google search brings up: <a href="http://blog.lostmag.com/2005/06/new-yorks-first-penn-station-lost-in.html" rel="nofollow">http://blog.lostmag.com/2005/06/new-yorks-first...</a> which is where I most probably grabbed it from. If this image is a violation, I'm more than happy to remove it. HI Cat – to be completely honest, I'm not 100% sure where I found that one.

Perhaps in this country we have a long way to go regarding our architectural heritage. But reality is a strong and destructive force. Think about the great manor houses in England once homes to mighty barons but now forced to open their places for tourists and accommodations. Adapt or die I suppose.
