Apart from its function as a transportation hub, the station is also a major tourist sight for its grand design, overwhelming size, or shops and restaurants.
While the concourses, the lower levels, the entrances are all impressive in themselves, the real heart of the building is the main hall. This is the pulsating centre of Grand Central Terminal. It is here that you will see passengers waiting in line to buy their tickets, consulting the information signs for departure times, waving goodbye to loved ones, hurrying to their trains on tracks that are largely hidden behind doors. It is also here that you will feel small when you look up at the blue-greenish ceiling, representing an evening sky with gilded stars and constellations. The literal centre pieces of the hall is the four-sided clock above the information booth, a landmark in itself and an easy meeting point.
