I have not yet entered the station, but from the outside, it looks like a modern and legit, multi-storied train station. There are still barriers and fences to prevent entry to the entire facility. Soon, all of the construction will be complete. Just glancing from 19th St, it is easy to see the modern waiting area with digital displays that will show wait times. The waiting area is large and expansive, a great improvement from the former train station. The street-scaping is quite appropriate... decorative pavers and bollards front a station that makes a statement that this facility isn't meant for one or two trains a day.
