Transport hubs encourage development. In the UK look at all the satellite industries around Heathrow and Gatwick. Look at the offices being built close to Paddington and Kings Cross stations in London, or Reading.
The sensible thing would be for the city to buy up land round the stations, then build offices and lease them. The income would offset the costs.
