Definition of hell on earth: NYC Penn Station
New York Penn station is my most hated place on earth. Every corridor, staircase and room fills me with absolute rage. When I have to travel from New Jersey to NYC, I always imagine that I died on the train and will be forever stuck in Penn station choking on the smell of burning hot dogs and greasy popcorn. If I ever met the architects who designed Penn, I would punch them straigth in the throat.
Comparing the new and the old Penn Station, renowned Yale architectural historian Vincent Scully once wrote, “One entered the city like a god; one scuttles in now like a rat.”- Wikipedia
Here is an article about some other buildings that should be torn down. Notice that Penn Station/Madison Square Garden is the first on the list.
This is what they torn down in 1964. Criminals!
Remember the night you met that guy in the bathroom at Penn? His clothes were dirty, but his hands were clean.
…and his mouth warm.
