ruminations about architecture and design

in seek of improvements


The indoor waiting area at North Station in Boston is probably the worst public space in the entire city. The negative attributes are too many to count, but we will try to list the most egregious architectural errors:

-Too small
-Bad lighting
-Bad colors
-Bad seating
-Bad acoustics
-Bad sightlines
-Bad restrooms
-Bad signage

With the exception of size, many of these problems could be remedied. Why was it designed so poorly in the first place?
