More appreciation for our favorite BART station. Some great details - like the light glass roof with expressive tails on the steel purlins; the central roof valley beam that’s also a rain gutter and light fixture, the varied textures of concrete that make paintings with light. The facade is drawn from the building’s section, and the section molds an experience of light and space.
