GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
It may take two days for me to complete my initial review. I will note/pass items as I go along. You don't need to wait for me to finish to begin addressing them. Most of my comments are open for discussion, so feel free to question anything. Once complete, I will be claiming points for this review in the 2017 WikiCup.

- "...architectural elements were used ... to create the desired atmosphere in the station include linear stainless steel light fixtures over..." There's a verb problem here. I think station, including might be the easiest fix. elements used is another. I have no preference for either, and wouldn't oppose a third option if you like something different.
