520			_aLooks at the history of St Pancras Station and the 2007 project to renovate and redevelop the area around St Pancras and transform the station into the new London terminus for the high-speed channel tunnel link to continental Europe. One of the largest civil engineering projects in Europe, the book shows how the old St Pancras (one of London's finest Victorian stations) has been restored to its original glory and extended for the demands of 21st-century rail travel. The book has been written by those who were involved in the project and relates how the original building was renovated and expanded with major new additions and how the surrounding area has been regenerated to become a desirable destination in its own right. Winner of the 2008 RICS Project of the Year Award.
