Although it is a bit disconcerting to see a station devoid of people, it is also a little unnerving to see a massive concourse with only a scattering of people wandering aimlessly as in this view of Chicago's Union Station, built in the 1920s for what would be $1B in today's dollars ($75 million)

Moscow metro stations may be the most beautiful in the world --Although my postcards show a couple of original ones!
The Chicago station seems even cheap for current standards...
I would love to. be in Moscow and just travel from one station to another. The people in the CUS certainly emphasized the grand scale of the building!
Beautiful stations, I like grand ornate ones.
My stations are here
Novoslobodskaya Station is fantastic! You have beautiful station postcards!

Wonderful station postcards! The Moscow station is so different. And clean.
