The Miami station looks pretty nice. Definitely, a different direction on architecture than the JRTC.

SOM (Skidmore Owings & Merrill) has been using this "lattice" approach in many of the HSR stations they have been designing in China, so seeing it used as the station cover is not surprising here.  However, this particular layout is more geometric and angular than what they did in Shanghai.

I don't have anything to back it up, but this will probably be their architectural "fingerprint" for the other stations as well, just smaller in scale.
