My nomination for station knocked down crime:
In late 1970's they knocked down the mission style SP station in San
Francisco and a trailer home park was put there, the Caltrans station
moved back a block into a glorified shack...m
this station would be ideal today as I think it would be practically at
PacBell Park's from gate..a true crime
Also the Brooklyn LIRR terminal which was complete on top, and even had
the meat hooked platforms on the north end...they knocked this station
down as others were trying to save it as a landmark...very spiteful,
only now, some maybe 10 years later is something supposed to be built
there (a suburban style mall)..this really pissed me off
