Christopher Brown, author of Still Standing: A Century of Urban Train Stations traces the development of the urban train station from its beginnings in the 1820s to the end of the 20th century era of station-building in the 1950s using his visual survey of stations from St. Louis to Istanbul. Architect Andrew Whalley, partner at Grimshaw Architects, draws on his experience as partner-in-charge of Paddington station and Waterloo's Eurostar terminal in London to discuss the design of today’s train stations worldwide. The program is introduced by Hugh Hardy, FAIA, founder of H3 Hardy Collaboration Architecture, LLC and moderated by Alexandros Washburn, chief urban designer, New York City Department of City Planning.
