The Original Penn Station, Spliced Together from Hollywood Movies
August 29th, 2008 5 comments link to (permalink) posted by david
“Intercut scenes, from Hollywood films shot in New York’s Pennsylvania Station before it was demolished in 1963, or on stage sets representing it, form a composited narrative set in Manhattan’s great lost architectural masterpiece”.
And now the good news: the reason why we still have New York’s Grand Central, or London’s St Pancras in all their glory is because with hindsight the demolition of Euston and Penn Stations were evidently a mistake.

For some reason this creeps me out, its like watching footage of a ghost building. Perhaps its the atmospheric noise, either way..chilling…*shudders*

Let’s be honest, I can not come to terms with you in this point. Excuse me, yet I have my own idea about this

This was a really good post. I would definitely recommend this site to anyone who is interested in reading about old Hollywood movies and how they set up the stage.
