The story of Grand Central Terminal is that of New York City itself: the structure embodies the social, cultural, economic and technological evolution around it. It is one of great men, feuding architects, ingenuity, rejuvenation, secrets and surprises. On this tour, you will hear stories about what once was, what could have been, and what can be; about the struggle to save and restore Grand Central as preserved icon of past, and of challenges to ensure that it serves New York’s future. You will see what it was like in the booming age of the railroad, as a rundown embarrassment, and as a renovated jewel at the center of the city. Explore the interesting and unique spaces produced for and by it. Whether you pass through it every day on your morning commute or it’s your first time in the Beaux Arts beauty, you are sure to leave having learned, seen, or experienced something new and extraordinary.Some of the highlights of the tour are:Peeking into the entrance of the glass walkwaysLocating its lost armchairs and learn many more of its secretsLearn about Grand Central Terminal’s backwards ceiling and see its hidden tennis courtsAdditional InformationConfirmation will be received at time of bookingTour is in EnglishA small amount of walking is involvedWheelchair accessibleInclusionsAdmission ticketExclusionsFood and drinksGratuities (optional)Hotel pickup and drop-offDuration90 minutesVoucher InfoYou can present either a paper or an electronic voucher for this activity.The tour identified in this promotion is made available through Viator.
