Art in Grand Central Terminal




I had dinner with a good friend at Grand Central tonight. Saw the place full of people and great art downstairs in the eating area.
Here is a photo of a vintage photo taken in GCT dining area downstairs.

The pity of it is Vanderbilt Hall, upstairs, gorgeous and empty. I hope that art can grace this area before the clatter of hawkers begins the holiday shopping season...
