Pershing Square features for its art a variety of
brightly lit tubing, neon and
otherwise, of which this view shows but a portion. The
installation is entitled "Neon for Pershing Square Station," and was
created by Stephen Antonakos in 1993. We are told that it
commemorates the nearby location of the first neon sign in the United
States, lit up in 1924.
Part of an inbound train can be seen to the right. It has but two
further stations to reach the Union Station terminal. |
