They don't build them like this anymore
In amongst the gleaming new steel and glass around Sankt Wendel railway station lies this old building. It looks rather dilapidated and totally out of fashion. Does it deserve to be offered up to the wrecking ball?
No please!!!! This building is so great.
ReplyDeleteTook the photo while on the move? How did you get the building to tilt?
ReplyDeleteNicely done.

ReplyDeleteEven distroying all the past, we can't run away from our memories.

Out of fashion is not a problem, but delapidted is. I like the style: the shapes, colours and materials are very pleasing. Was it a restaurant?
ReplyDeleteZeitgeist changes rapidly. Architecture styles come and go. I would rather keep it because it is a witness from a particular time period. Nice picture!
ReplyDeleteIt is an attractive building but somewhat worn and in a field of cement ... I doubt it will survive.
ReplyDeleteI hate the wrecking ball! Old buildings have character, and most new building aren't worth the time it takes to stop and take a photo.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot !! I love your post always..I Would please to give to Unseen Rajasthan Award.Just go to my Blog and collect the Unseen Rajasthan award on the right side bar.All the very best.
ReplyDeleteI like it very much! Hope it will be preserved.
ReplyDeleteI vote NO! The building is a slice of the past and I'm sure someone somewhere can think of an appropriate way to use it.
ReplyDeleteHey people, I'm amazed to find a shot of this building as i "google around" ... I grew up in this town and found this building always pretty ugly.
ReplyDeleteLooking back today, i have to admit it has the charme of the past and it would sure be a nice spot if taken care of.
As far as i remind - and that's since the early 60ies - it had always been a kind of 'station bar/pub' for [male] early birds or late risers with everything a station ambience comprises :-(
... behind the small windows below is an urinal.
