Located centrally in Hong Kong, this is the largest below ground station in the world. The high-speed rail terminus station will connect Hong Kong to Beijing with the largest rail network in history, expected to strengthen the city s strategic position as the southern gateway of China. West Kowloon Station enjoys a spectacular location with a panoramic view of the Hong Kong skyline, but when Bromberg s team entered the competition to design it, they encountered a problem the station is mostly 100 feet belowground. His solution was to ensure the station was civic-minded and to create a large volume capped by a shell-like dome that rises from the earth, capturing daylight and sending it deep underground. 0This book contains never-before-seen sketches, models, renderings, drawings, and all-new photography of the building as well as an interview with the architect. 651 7 $a China $z Hong Kong. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01260796 655 7 $a Architectural drawings. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986246 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423873 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 600 10 $a Bromberg, Andrew, $d 1968- 610 20 $a Aedas (Firm) 650 0 $a Railroad stations $z Hong Kong $z Hong Kong $v Designs and plans. 650 0 $a Architectural design. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200103023142.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=13C5585E2DF711EAB868BF0597128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
