South Station Bus Terminal

A second phase of construction, to expand the coach bus terminal, is part of the South Station Tower project.

[9] The bus station building has a mixture of glass and metal on its exterior, with mainly a red-granite stone and metallic-surfaced interior.

The passageway from the upper entrance lobby towards the main hall has a series of large dark-tinted windows overlooking the railway tracks below.

These include a newsstand and snack cart; free 15-minute public parking on the roof,[10] and restrooms.

Like other major transportation facilities, it also contains full service ticket counters, seating areas, and a waiting hall with designated gates leading to individual buses.
