Plans for the largest of All Aboard Florida's four stations were unveiled Wednesday, promising to change the downtown Miami skyline with a Grand Central Station-like landmark rail hub flanked by new skyscrapers. Stations are also planned in downtown Fort Lauderdale, downtown West Palm Beach and at Orlando International Airport. But the Miami station is the first one officials have disclosed details on and may give residents in Broward and Palm Beach counties a glimpse of what's to come. The company that plans to launch a Miami-to-Orlando roundtrip passenger rail service in 2016 says it will transform a mostly vacant area between Government Center and Metrorail's Overtown stop with offices, housing, shops and parking.
