reflection on penn station video

i think the video on Penn station was very informing. I was amazed to see that Penn station was once the 4th largest building and the original building was tall with high ceiling and spectacular lighting. I could imagine how much of a hassle it was to travel on the boat from Pennsylvania on the Hudson river and with the mass chaos going on in the water that bought on stress to the people.  It is sad that in the words of Vincent Skully” The city once was looked at as a God now looked in as a rat”. I think its ashamed that the Vanderbilt family felt they needed to out do  Alexander Cozad and build their building more grand and made Penn station look like trash. In my opinion i think Penn Station should’ve of been more grand today because it is just as important and has history like Grand central terminal.
