It’s the onky obvious real choice. But it’s also bland, and their attempt at classical will not work. It’s more of a lipstick on a pig solution, but the final design may not be anything like that.

That PoS should not be spared.
The state plan, which is on the backburner, already envisions razing that block. But currently, only the existing station is being worked on.
