Moynihan Train Hall
New York, United States

The expansive wave-shaped skylight being erected over what was formerly the mail sorting room of New York’s historic James A. Farley Post Office is perhaps the single most eye-catching feature of this $1.6 billion renovation. It’s also one of the more challenging aspects of the project.

Spanned by massive steel trusses from the original 1913 structure, the 250,000-square-foot Moynihan Train Hall is being converted into a skylit courtyard that soon will offer destination shopping and dining, a much-needed expansion of facilities connecting to Penn Station.
