Lot of rumours, truth is it's unmotivated, the station is underwhelming compared to similar stations in Europe and - most important - it's already falling apart and encrusted in dirt, with mafia and corruption handling maintenance and cleaning

>it's already falling apart and encrusted in dirt

It opened four months ago.

What are you on about? I literally visited it last weekend and it was spotless and thriving with curious tourists interested in the well showcased findings.
Station Is huge and it's easy to overlook the issues. You have to look at the ceilings and spot the grime where water leaks (it was raining inside the station at the first rain literally the week after the opening). Look at the misplaced panels, broken trimmings and approximate maintenance works. Look at the lime spots (due to leaks) in the stairs. Look at the more out of reach waste that crews don't care to remove. Make all of those add day by day, and let me know when you'll visit next what you see.
