Łódź Piotrkowska Central Tram Station
Lodz Piotrkowska Centrum Tram Station nicknamed "Stajnia Jednorozcow" ("Unicorn Station") by siudowski (sdwsk)
Piotrkowska Centrum tram station is main exchange station in the strict center of city of Lodz (Łódź), Poland. Station connects two important transit axes in Lodz (north-south and east-west), and by locals it’s been nicknamed as "Stajnia Jednorożców" (literally: unicorn stable) and "Przesiadkowo" (literally: transfer place). It’s been opened in 2015 as part of larger modernization project.
The station was designed by Jan Gałecki, with construction taking inspiration from Art-Nouveau architecture, that prevails in history of the city. Roof however was inspired by raindrops hitting water surface, referencing colorful stained glass of Lodz’s historic landmarks and city logo. Overall, the structure is strikingly similar to Gare de Oriente, Lisbon.

It’s mildly tri-heavy asset but it shouldn’t impact performance; I decided to do so to get that desired detail that makes this building unique. I highly recommend using either Transparency LODs Fix or EML Prop Anarchy, as rotors shader doesn’t allow for LODs. Glass roof will also seemingly disappear at night due to shader limitation:
Rotors shader doesn’t receive shadows from other objects, meaning it will look unnaturally bright when in the shadow. Also, it only receives illumination from the sun, therefore it will be black when facing away from the sun, which is why it’s recommended to use a dark diffuse texture.
