I think MWAA nailed it on the architecture for the station at the airport. Being the Harry Weese purest that I am when it come to metrorail station architecture, this is a really good exception to that rule.
The station will have 4 escalators, 4 elevators between the mezzanine and the platform instead of the now standard 2 and no stairs.

Excellent, thank you. I agree with your assessment.

Excellent, thank you. I agree with your assessment.
Let's just hope that all the parties come to an agreement on paying for it.
