Railway Station from Blair Road

The other day I drove by this place and took a quick glance out from the car's window. All I could see is a huge grass patch void of any human activity. The zinc roofed buildings are gone, the rails and the posts have been taken away. Its another piece of empty land awaiting for a condo or a shopping mall to be built on, or maybe a residential area. Who knows. Or they could preserve the land to turn it into a park. There are some talks about it but I don't have good feelings about these discussions.
