30th Street Station, Philadelphia

Once the grandest train station in the Northeast corridor, 30th Street Station was in a depressed state after years of neglect. The historic restoration plan first required a forensic investigation of original materials including: limestone surfaces, painted surfaces, light fixtures, track signage, building signage and concourse floor. New design standards emphasized the historic store fronts and materials, while allowing tenants to express modern retailing standards.
