Wallet Card at the last original Penn Station building

The Penn Station Services Building was actually built in 1908, two years before Penn Station itself. It provided electricity, heat and other functions to the railroad, and remained in that role after the original station was razed in the 1960s. Eventually the functions all moved off-site, and by 2008 the building was empty but is being renovated to be reused again with Penn Station's expansion over the next few years.
