. Kleinschmidt‘s complete designs were never realised as they were later changed by other architects, but formed the base for what the station would later become. The main concrete shell of the building was completed before the Second World War, but construction was halted when Greece entered the war. Although the building was bombed throughout the early 1940s, it did not sustain heavy damage. Following the war, the station saw no development for over 20 years; however, the station began to operate in a substandard manner, while the old station continued to function as the city’s railway terminus. In 1958, the project was restarted, headed by Greek architects Molfesi and Papagianni, who made changes to the original design by Kleinschmidt, with a more
