It's pretty sad that so much of the original plasterwork disappeared, it must have been fantastic to look at when it was new.

Still cleaner than 90% of NYC Train stations.

It looks as if someone took a scalpel to the ceiling and it bled rust.

Looks like something one would picture when listening to Wreath of Barbs.

Whenever I listen to Boards of Canada, this is one of the kinds of things I imagine.

Looks like something Boards of Canada would use in their artwork.

The name of this photo brought to mind the song Abyss by Dawn of Ashes. I laughed.

The contrast between the disarray of the old tin and the straightness and seeming strength of the wood beams is impressive.

I think we've all had that sometime in elementary school. Left me feeling quite foolish.

I appreciate this kind of building much more than the renovated ones… the tin ceilings make it feel like it has higher ceilings and more space, therefore making it airier.

After looking at the rest of the gallery, I'm going to take a guess at this is the renovated building. I can't understand why they so often chose to cover up so much of the 19th century charm.

Oh, the dramatic twist

I wonder who's still wondering where that one pair of glasses they owned disappeared to fifteen years ago…

The rust on this door is amazing.
