Description
The track number at Grand Central Terminal in New York City is illuminated by an art deco lamp in vintage black and white.
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. Grand Central boasts restaurants, cocktail lounges, a gourmet market, and numerous specialty shops. (Information obtained from Wikipedia)

This is such a superb image at so many levels, Great composition, use of light, the B/W tomes are spot on, and I really like the slightly eerie presence to this as well! I just had to visit this masterful work again!
