Never been there. What's around Maverick station?

Sure, it looks great on the outside. Until you look at the lights on the end near Lewis Mall. They are covered in clear trashbags because the ceiling leaks so badly. I thought the project was delayed for several years because they were addressing the leaks - apparently not.

Ooooh, purty. I just recently was in the underground part of the new station (before the grand opening) and was amazed by how much more spacious, airy, and (dare I say?) attractive it was. It has taken too long, but I'm excited for Maverick Square to wake up from its long sleep with this beautiful station as its new centerpiece.
