Overview
You'll learn every hidden detail of Grand Central Terminal’s Main Concourse, including areas not usually open to the public. Discover the stories behind the stunning artwork on Grand Central’s ceiling, along with the damage and restorations it has undergone over the years. We’ll also visit the tracks that once hosted New York City’s most extravagant guests, and now serve people from all walks of life.
This tour offers the opportunity to explore the depths of Grand Central Madison, the world's deepest train station. You’ll also hear, through stories and photographs, about Jackie Kennedy, Grand Central’s heroine. The experience even extends outdoors, showcasing surrounding architecture in Art Deco, Gothic, Classical, and Modern styles.
Have you heard about the tennis courts? The Whispering Gallery? The Campbell Apartment? Or the Graybar Building? And of course, the top-secret engine room that had to be protected by U.S. Marines from Adolf Hitler himself. This tour covers every inch of the terminal!
