The solution to this is to build it in the moon from moon rocks and send it by maglev trains. Full scale spaceships can be 3D printed in parts, assembled on-orbit, and Dragon/Starliner class rowboats can be used to board it.

Longer term - definitely thats the way to go. But first we need to build all this infrastructure & nuclear termal propulsion might be already necessary to get there.
