...high as the Empire State, nor does it sprawl over as much acreage as the Pentagon, nor is it as monumental as the Roman Baths of Caracalla, after which Penn Station was modeled. But set down where it is, near one of the world's busiest railroad stations, shaped as it is (eight sides), lit with incandescent lighting installed by Broadway Lighting Expert Abe Feder, it is bound to command attention...

...Valley, the vegetable dealers in London's Covent Garden and the truck assembly-line workers in Hagerstown, Md., probably have no idea of how closely their lives are linked to a New York and Chicago firm called the Fantus Co.

Last week it started work on the most far-reaching project in its 42-year history: a year-long...

Perhaps the busiest practitioner of this fast-growing trade is tall, bespectacled John Watson, 40, of Dallas. His specialty is creating moonlight, though he produces a myriad other effects to order.
