Railway exchange building

Bump.

I had a long sordid history in this building. It’s not nearly as tall in the center as it seems from the skyline view. Floor 9 or 10 possibly was the extent of the full floors. Above that was perimeter only construction. If you look via satellite view you’ll see what I mean. Try getting a crane to put something on floor 9 that has to cross floor 18. If you do, you are better at rigging than I.

Wow, you can clearly see from the sat views how this building was constructed with something akin to a mid-floor courtyard approach. Very interesting...

I never understood the reasoning for the design but I always thought it was cool too.

We are all just students of history and you’ve got something good, with a statement like that. Not fair to hold out! I promise I have thick skin. Plz????

I mean I initially posted some incorrect information, realized my error, and deleted the comment (but you can't delete comments in totality).

Oh gotcha. I did that once and couldn’t login for like 12 hours. Thought I got banned from the forum lol.

Police secured entrances to this building and kicked out the homeless they found inside.
