English term or phrase: constitution railway station
Ich habe leider keinen Kontext, da es sich um eine Aufzählung von Bahnhöfen handelt.

Explanation:
Könnte ein Bahnhof in Argentinien sein - also keine Übersetzung.
But overall, things are not well in Buenos Aires. Underneath nearby motorway bridges, it is not unusual to the dispossessed living in cardboard. There is the shocking state of the Constitution Railway Station, at the east end of the marvelous ceremonial boulevard Ave. 9 de Julio. The station appears ready to collapse and would surely have been long ago condemned in many nations. But here, it remains in service. “Amshacks” would be an improvement.
