For about a decade, beginning in the 1890s, Wagner was involved in engineering projects. As adviser to the Transport Commission in Vienna, Wagner was occupied with the construction of the Stadtbahn, the city's metropolitan railway network. Not only did he design bridges and tunnels for this system, but he also designed the stations, with their complex of platforms, staircases, and ticket offices. Many of these stations survive today. Like the Majolika Haus and the Apartment Block No. 38, they use elements of art nouveau
