Euston is pretty much a lost cause, I think. *The only real solution would be to send a team of trainee architects untainted by the scourge of "modernism" to examine St Pancras, and Glasgow Central, and Manchester Piccadilly, and learn how a main line terminus station should be designed, with beautiful and imposing buildings, a glass roof supported by impressive-looking steelwork, and using traditional materials like brick and stone. *And of course to include a replica of the "arch". But that'd cost money Or they could just rebuild it as it used to look, but scaled and re- oriented appropriately for the modern size and location of the station. |
