By all means provide plenty of shops but design them in from the start so

In Euston they are being removed, and it is providing an improvement.


That is because they were crammed onto the circulating area. If the station
had been designed to accommodate the shops in addition to the large
circulating hall then they wouldn't need to be removed.

On a related note, anything that restores something of the original beauty
and space of Euston is to to be applauded
