The DC metro stations are very spacious. Been a long while since I lived in DC but they weren't crowded compared to stations in NYC or London.

NYC and London have the issue where they were first generation systems trying to figure out what worked and what did not. DC’s general height limits in conjunction with typical American SFH friendly zoning also do not help utilization.
