Recently officially renamed the "William H. Gray III 30th Street Station" (but no one calls it that), Philadelphia's main rail station is a neoclassical gem. Located just across the river from Center City in West Philadelphia, it serves Amtrak, SEPTA, and a few NJ Transit trains. The modernist glass Cira Center office complex next door is a striking contrast.

@mattblaze@federate.social love that lens... big beast to be carrying around!

it's pretty well balanced on a 503 body, can't imagine it being good for the back on a dSLR form factor.

@mattblaze@federate.social easily one of my favorite buildings in philly, a city not lacking for underappreciated architectural finds. A great picture!

@mattblaze@federate.social That’s freaking incredible. The photo, and the architecture.
