A beautiful piece of architecture, it was restored in 1994 after being taken over by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. It is a busy center in the city with trains running from the Metro-North and Harlem lines with bus service and entrance to the 4, 5, 6, subway line. The Grand Concourse is a magnificent sight with its giant windows and a large ceiling with a twlinking contellation map with pictures of all the astrological signs. If you are in the city during the winter season, be sure to check out the holiday light show that occurs on the ceiling and makes tourists out of even the busiest commuters. There is also a dining area below the main concourse with many different food stations. Grand Central houses a food market and retail shops. It has everything to entertain you while waiting for that train.
