Beauty in the Past

This is a picture of the old Redland's Railway Station built in 1909 by Arthur Brown Jr. This historical landmark is engraved with beautiful pictures of tropical fruit beside the round columns from which this building stands. Within its halls, dim lights droop from the cieling creating a romantic effect only seen and felt after the sun rests. I chose this architectural work of art because it's one of the very few landmarks that refer back to a time when industriatlization and transportation began to grow and flourish. It is a reflection of the time period of the early 1900's and the civilization's eagerness of starting anew.
