| dc.description.abstract | The building type that is being proposed is a passenger train station combined
with an interpretation center creating a multi-use structure. Train
travel is an experience that is under emphasized as a means of travel in
much of the nation. The train station is pivotal as an interface between the
passing train car and the communities they serve if the railroad is to reclaim
its standing as a one of the dominant forms of travel in the United
States. Additionally, the railway was the driving force which most instrumental
to the early growth and development of Minot. Also by combining
additional uses within the same structure, there is a greater ability to attract
a more diverse group of visitors for each of the building's functions.
The purpose of the historical interpretative center is to serve as educational
exploration environment of the community they are in, while tying
the community to its rich past with the railroad. | en_US |
