Image of the Day: Grand Central's New Look
One of America's most famous train stations gets a new logo.
Grand Central is turning 100. As a gift, New York City got it a new logo.
The sleek design - a clock tower that mimics the famous timepiece in the station's central hall - has hands that point to 7:13 or 19:13 in "trainmaster's time," a nod to the year Grand Central opened. The station was slated for demolition in the 1970s, but saved by preservationists. It was restored completely in the 1990s.
