Broad Street Station
Opened here, 1881, by the Pennsylvania Railroad; enlarged 1893. This was once the world's largest railroad passenger terminal. Its great arched train shed burned, 1923. The station and its long elevated stone track bed (the “Chinese Wall”) remained until 1952-53.
Marker is at the intersection of 15th Street and Market Street, on the right when traveling south on 15th Street.
