Grand Central Terminal

Grand Central stands as one of NYC's premier attractions, offering a compelling blend of rich history, architectural details, exquisite dining, and diverse shopping. Recognized globally for its Beaux-Arts design, Grand Central is not just a transportation center, it's a destination. From the celestial ceiling in the Main Concourse to the famed Whispering Gallery, every corner holds a story. Opened in 1913 and largely recognized as one of the only buildings in New York City with sufficiently preserved Beaux-Arts architecture, today visitors and locals alike can connect to Grand Central Terminal’s past and present by joining 'Walks' on the Official Grand Central Terminal tour to dive into the stories and people behind this magnificent landmark. The Dining Concourse, located on the terminal’s Lower Level, is a one-stop diner’s paradise, perfect for grabbing a meal or snack on the go offering everything from sweet treats to burgers, salads, pizza, tacos, and the best of NYC. Grand Central Market offers a European-style gourmet shopping experience conveniently located steps from the train and subway. The market features an array of vendors, including many local favorites, offering ingredients and prepared foods. Specialty dining includes distinct restaurants: The Grand Central Oyster Bar & Restaurant, Grand Brasserie, Campbell Bar, and Cipriani Dolci. Don't miss shopping in Lexington Passage, nestled within the heart of the terminal, this lively shopping corridor is brimming with unique local businesses and exclusive boutiques.
