SUMMARY:Lecture: Grand Central Terminal - 100 Years of a New York Landmark
DESCRIPTION:On February 1st\, 1913\, the brand-new Grand Central Terminal opened its doors to an admiring public. On February 1st\, 2013\, the beautifully restored Terminal – rescued from destruction by a seminal 1978 Supreme Court decision – celebrates its Centennial\, accompanied by exhibitions\, events\, and a new book: Grand Central Terminal: 100 Years of a New York Landmark. The Terminal’s creation combined engineering bravado (sinking two train yards below ground)\, technological wizardry (electrifying the trains to eliminate steam and enable their underground functioning)\, and real-estate savvy (replacing the original street-level train yard with 16 blocks of newly prime Midtown Manhattan real-estate\, whose development paid for it all) with innovative planning (interior ramps and looping tracks) and Paris-inspired Beaux-Arts design. This illustrated lecture brings the Terminal to life – its remarkable history\, stunning architecture\, and central role in creating midtown Manhattan. \nThe lecture is sponsored by the New York State Museum and the New York State Archives\, and funded by the New York Council for the Humanities.
