Oh, yeah - Grand Central - Wrath of the Barclay

Oh, yeah - Grand Central

I believe they cleaned it up a few years ago, so now you can see the splendour of the ceiling - in '89 it was just a yellow nicotine wash.

And, if they still do it, the three hour "Circle Line" boat-trip round the whole of Manhattan is an great way to see the city from a different angle (and, perhaps, nurse a hangover) and the guides are very good.
