station

to stand; to halt; to stop; branch of a company or organization; website

stand upright (立) + sound (占) = a station where you stand

立 shows a person standing upright, grounding the meaning of 'standing' or 'a place where one stands.' 占 mainly contributes the sound zhàn and does not add semantic weight here.
