About the only up side to the demolition of Penn Station in the 60s was the drive to preserve Grand Central, an effort spearheaded by, among others, Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Here we see the result, though I have to admit, it may have been a partial victory. Kodak had a large display of a photo taken, of course, with Kodak film. The display dominated the concourse. The photos were often dramatic and beautiful, but to some of us purists, detracted from the grandeur of this beautiful building. The pictures changed monthly, and well see several. Dad was on the balcony of the Vanderbilt Av side of the station. |
