for crissake keep the iconic massive X-bracing we have . .
it’s impressively monumental, classically modern, & architectur-
ally distinctive . . and would make a super great base for any style
tower(s) built above the station . . For extra bus-bay gates
expansion, stack another few levels into a 2nd matching truss
constructed above . . get rid of the sickly green color & paint the
girders a bold bright clean industrial construction-site orange . .
then channel the extra funds saved below, up into more excellent
tower(s)above . . taller, finer materials . . no ubiquitous silvery glass
. . anyway, that’s what’s in my whacko imagination . .
Manhattan is a patchwork of some really magnificent
architecture & a whole lotta crap . . tear down the mediocre &
work around what’s great . . unless you’re gonna replace it with
something grander . . Guess I have a thing for mighty iron
trusswork . .
