Description
The iconic clock on the information kiosk within the Great Hall of New York City's famed Grand Central Terminal, made by The Self Winding Clock Co., inc. and installed in 1913.
Grand Central Terminal stands as one of America's greatest transportation hubs, and one of New York City's most iconic buildings. It is both a national institution and an international example of giving new life to a historic building rather than demolition and reconstruction. Over the course of a colorful and tumultuous 100-year history, Grand Central has gone from being simply the beginning and terminating point of long-distance rail travel, to being the iconic home of Metro-North Railroad and a destination for commuters, tourists and residents.

Wonderful perspective! I like how you caught the one face, and was able to get enough of the other, plus it's clock hands to the right! Stunningly captured in b/w!
