Our nephew is taking the train up to hang out for the weekend. He asked if we needed anything from NYC and I emailed back, “more culture.” As if the city has a lock on that sort of hint. It does have more people.
This morning’s paper had an article about the newly proposed Rochester train station. The architects drawing shows a building that looks quite a bit like the old station, the one the city tore down in 1965 in middle of a destructive urban renewal rampage. That old one was actually the third Rochester train station. It was designed by Claude Bragdon and it was a showpiece of art and culture.
