Description
Tour Grand Central Terminal with noted historian Dan Brucker, can accommodate up to 25 people
- Discover a jewel in GCT worth between $10-20 million.
- Visit a secret, hidden staircase on the main concourse that no one ever sees--but is used all the time.
- Learn about New York City's deepest, largest and most secret basement, which Adolf Hitler tried to have destroyed in 1942. And what he wanted to have destroyed--and almost did--is still down there.
- Unveil a design error in the main concourse--that is the size of the main concourse.
- Learn about a secret train station (which we adamantly state does NOT exist) that's buried within the terminal--which contains another historic secret within itself. Built in the 1930s, it's so secret today that gunmen are often stationed nearby to protect it.
- Explore our Lost and Found--and find out why it's the word's most effective lost and found.
- Whisper a secret in a certain corner of the terminal--and have your friend hear it 30 feet away.
- Learn how time--as we know it--actually, truly began in Grand Central.
- Learn about the world's most secret elevator. Built in 1932, and which the federal government insists MUST ALWAYS be kept in perfect condition.
- View an elaborate clock carved in a marble wall with a cryptic inscription testifying that time - as we know it today - began in Grand Central Terminal.
- Hear about a 1913 Westinghouse electronic computer (yes, from 1913) that was designed to locate trains that have seemingly disappeared. And it's encased in glass.
- View massive one-inch secret---invisible to us today, but to be clearly seen and known hundreds of thousands of years from now.
