Grand celebration
By Mustang Bobby
Grand Central Terminal turns 100.
I’ve never arrived in New York by train, so I’ve never used it as a traveler. But I’ve been through Grand Central Terminal to catch a subway and just to look at this icon of American architecture from a time when places of industry were monuments.

I'm glad the Grand Central station has survived the wrecker's ball (unlike the glorious Penn Station that was torn down in 1963). Photos of the latter reveal what a heart-breaking architectural loss this was for NYC (and indeed, the world).
