The old railway station building from the 1930s is a fine example of the architectural style of that era. Its construction involved using bricks, with the bricks themselves sourced from a brickyard in Tel Aviv. The building was then faced with white limestone, a common practice that added a distinctive aesthetic to the structure. This method of construction, combining brickwork with limestone facing, was typical of the period and reflects the architectural trends and building techniques used in the region in the early 20th century.
