I have my doubts about whether the Green Line will ever make it to these stations they're designing. I also wonder why they're designing such fancy stations to begin with. Surely simple platforms, with concrete ramps for ADA purposes and an enclosed booth for ticket machines would be more cost effective.

Well past point of no return on any fiscal recourse for backing out, so it's a 'safe' project.
The billion-dollar question is, of course, whether it'll happen within 8 years of projected finish date.
