point
of
great
local
pride
to
fight
for
its
restoration.
If
the
building
is
returned
to
its
original
glory,
it
is
realistic
to
expect
that
people
will
travel
from
all
over
the
world
to
see
the
station
glimmering
against
the
local
skyline
once
again
–
a
positive,
historic
local
landmark
preserved
for
future
generations
to
enjoy.
Of
the
many
active
train
restoration
groups
in
existence,
some
should
be
interested
enough
to
help
save
this
station.
If
not
an
avid
train
lover,
then
an
architect
perhaps?
From
an
architectural
stand
point,
this
building
is
absolutely
amazing.
It
was
years
ahead
of
its
time
when
first
constructed,
and
is
still
ahead
of
its
time
today.
It
should
be
a
matter
of
great
pride
for
any
student
of
architecture,
at
any
level,
to
be
able
to
say
that
they
assisted
with
the
preservation
of
this
station
in
any
way.
Investors,
bankers,
grant
donors.
From
any
part
of
the
world,
this
building
is
a
worthy
cause,
or
investment,
or
tax
write
off
(the

College
students,
fraternities,
sororities.
This
would
be
an
amazing
cause
to
hold
a
fundraiser
for.
Imagine
that
in
the
near
or
distant
future,
your
college
could
plan
a
trip
to
the
restored
Potter
Street
Station,
and
tour
a
proud
landmark
that
you
had
a
hand
in
restoring!
Artists,
photographers,
or
just
anyone
who
appreciates
beauty
in
any
way.
I
would
be
hard
pressed
to
believe
that
anyone
would
be
able
to
look
at
this
building
with
anything
less
than
admiration.
