Skylights above Train Lines

Britomart Transport Centre is the CBD public transport hub of Auckland, New Zealand, and the northern terminus of the North Island Main Trunk line. It combines a bus interchange with a railway station in a former Edwardian post office, extended with expansive post-modernist architectural elements. It is at the foot of Queen Street, the main commercial thoroughfare of Auckland CBD, with the main ferry terminal just across Quay Street.

The futuristic domes in this image are actually skylights above the train lines coming in and out of the Britomart Transport Centre in Auckland, NZ. They are intended to represent Auckland's volcanic heritage.

My daughter-in-law and I had lunch today at a wonderful restaurant near these domes. My grandchildren were fascinated by them last night, when we were visiting a nearby attraction, and were running and jumping all over them, almost as they were on skateboards!
