Could well be - but Euston, and particularly the bus station, would be
far nicer if it was open to the park and the road.

It has been a while since I was there. In front of Euston I would
like to see:

1. Better Access to Euston Square Station.
2. Easy access for Taxis.
3. Open Space.
4. The rebuilt Arch

On the subject of the Arch: Surely the important thing is to locate
drawing and pictures of the original and to construct a replica.
There is little merit in bringing the original stone back from its
watery grave.
