Public spaces change fast here in San Francisco, and for better or worse, it can be pretty crazy when you see what the City used to look like. Every week, we'll bring you Then & Now, a comparison...
Hoboken Terminal, or the Erie Lackawanna Railroad and Ferry Terminal, designed by engineer Lincoln Bush and architect Kenneth Murchison, was built by the Delaware, Lackawanna, & Western Railroad (DL&W) in 1907. The tubes of the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad, forerunner of PATH, were extended to Hoboken Terminal upon its opening. The first revenue train on the new line ran from the terminal on February 26, 1908. The copper sheathed structure sits over water on a steel and concrete foundation, accommodating six ferry slips and fourteen rail lines. Its individually roofed train shed arches were an innovative design at the time. Years ago, the terminal was a busy hub for Ellis Island immigrants traveling by train to western portions of the country/. Today, it plays a vital role in New Jersey's transportation system as a multi-modal transportation center for the northern and central portions of the state served by numerous NJ TRANSIT bus and commuter rail lines, the PATH rapid rail system to New York City, Jersey City and Newark, and NY Waterway ferry service to lower Manhattan.
