Grand Central Terminal Moldings
From the exhibition Saving Place: 50 Years of New York City Landmarks
On the left is an original exterior limestone molding from Grand Central Terminal. On the right is a replacement cast stone molding. As curator Donald Albrecht tells Untapped Cities, visitors to the exhibition “may be surprised that they actually were going to tear down Grand Central Terminal at one point. What the preservation movement is about and what it was about in the past is more than you think it is.”
