The video I posted from twitter is Harrison to the South of OPO. Hopefully that answers your question.

North of Congress, the West Plaza will be a car dropoff zone. It's a little tight for cars to U-turn, it reminds me of Aon's dropoff area on Upper Lake St but without the PoMo trappings. I guess you can't have a big Uber office without an Uber dropoff zone...
I think the West Plaza, south of Congress will go back to being a loading area for OPO. Longer-term, they may use this as an entrance/exit to the south Metra platforms at Union Station or the new Amtrak platforms they will build where USPS unloaded mail trains under OPO. Could also include an entrance to the Clinton St Blue Line stop.
