Portsmouth also has more options to choose from, allowing me different shopping, dining, and…

It's been six o'clock in the morning I was in my bed. I heard my mother yelling my name "Joey wake up".

The food was already made for me it was eggs & bread. I was trying…

Above me comes a computer-generated voice letting me know where I am. The station is a sea of people. The loud hum of a thousand conversations buzzes in the air.

Similarly, the article “Reading and Writing about Public and Private Space” by Silverman, helps pull together the aspects of Union Station. When people enter Union Station many times from a late night or long flight, they are greeted by big leather seating couches making the place seem familiar and…

Yesterday I visited Grand Central Station- or I should say terminal, the famous station as changed its names many times throughout the last hundred years.

Being originally from Washington, D.C., I spent my childhood riding the subway with my parents from the city to the suburbs. We would pick up our car at the local park-and-ride down the street from our home, and then repeat the same process the next day. During the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, because of the subway, my parents had quick and easy access to my daycare center. With the said, according to the Department of Transportation, statistical data revealed that from…
