Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The construction of Pennsylvania Station (1904-1910) was a monumental undertaking ... for the voluminous earth displaced, incredible innovation, and brilliant French-influenced classical architecture, but it also was a quintessential archetype of the Gilded Age. The station reshaped the economic and social fabric of New York by dislodging scores of families and local businesses. It had been built for prestige and grandeur rather than sustainability and prolonged the rivalry with the New York Central and Hudson River Railroads, leading to the creation of Grand Central Terminal. Although the station was successful for increasing passenger journeys, the rise of independent travel after World War II and mounting financial losses culminated with its unfortunate demise and eventual destruction. Nevertheless, through the misfortune of demolition emerged the first historic preservation laws, which have saved countless historic buildings, including its Park Avenue rival"--Back cover.

Book excerpt: “Superb. [A] first-rate narrative” (The Wall Street Journal) about the controversial construction of New York’s beloved original Penn Station and its tunnels, from the author of Eiffel's Tower and Urban Forests As bestselling books like Ron Chernow's Titan and David McCullough's The Great Bridge affirm, readers are fascinated with the grand personalities and schemes that populated New York at the close of the nineteenth century. Conquering Gotham re- creates the riveting struggle waged by the great Pennsylvania Railroad to build Penn Station and the monumental system of tunnels that would connect water-bound Manhattan to the rest of the continent by rail. Historian Jill Jonnes tells a ravishing tale of snarling plutocrats, engineering feats, and backroom politicking packed with the most colorful figures of Gilded Age New York. Conquering Gotham will be featured in an upcoming episdoe of PBS's American Experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Opened to the public in 1910, McKim, Mead & White's Pennsylvania Station gave the traveller, visitor, and commuter alike an experience of grandeur never before seen in the United States. With its dramatic vaulted glass ceiling over its expansive main concourse, Pennsylvania Station was a monument not only to train travel but an architectural icon of New York City and one of the grandest public buildings of the 20th century. In 1962 the decision was made to demolish the station as train travel gave way to the speed of the airplane. No one could have foreseen that the destruction of Pennsylvania Station would prove to be one of the key moments in the birth of the historic-preservation movement. Visiting the station between 1962 and 1966, Peter Moore documented the station's demise in photographs that combine elegant images of architectural form and detail. There are haunting pictures of glass and masonry stripped away from steel girders as the building is progressively destroyed. The commuters and the public seem to be unaware of what is happening directly overhead in photographs that convey a poignancy for a building lost forever."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
