Hulking old train stations hold a nostalgic fascination for Americans, but no other turn-of-the-century depot can match the grip of the 1893 Reading Terminal on Philadelphians' hearts. The second part of the terminal's full name, the Reading Terminal and Market explains it, cor the Reading is treasured not just for wartime bustle, happy trips remembered, or the romantic steam and electric equipment that rolled into the 12th & Market station in halcyon times. For the massive Reading head-house office building and soaring train shed have sheltered an epicure's delight - a teeming marketplace that epitomizes the personal, neighborhood character of the nation's fifth-largest city. In "Reading Terminal and Market" Philadelphia's Historic Gateway and Grand Convention Center", Carol M. Highsmith and James L. Holton have frozen great memories in time. In rich text, mesmerizing historic photography, and fulsome photographs of the terminal reborn as southeastern Pennsylvania's stunning convention center, Highsmith and Holton capture the gritty story of a never-say-die landmark. |
