History of the Grand Central Station

​

Grand Central Terminal, previously Grand Central Station, is a stunning Beaux-Arts building that has impressed visitors with its dramatic architecture and presence for over 100 years. From the Whispering Gallery to the Campbell Apartment and the Clock and Information Booth, Terry Tours NYC covers virtually everything you can think of. Soak in the breathtaking ceiling mural, four-sided clock, and other architectural feats. We’ll even teach you about the ceiling smudge, the black circle, and so much more.

 

From 1903 until 1913, Grand Central Station was systematically dismantled and replaced by Grand Central Terminal. Grand Central Terminal opened to the public on February 2, 1913. Made from granite, this building was revolutionary in the fact that it featured electricity, had multiple levels, and underground tracks. Find out why 150,000 people flocked to this landmark when it opened and still continue to do so to this very day.
