guillelobera 0 Posted June 17, 2004 The interior of Grand Central Terminal is an amazing sight: the main concourse is most impressive. It is 470ft long, 160ft wide and 150ft high. The ceiling is painted by the French artist Paul Helleu. The design with zodiac constellations was taken from a medieval manuscript. Light enters the main concourse through three 75ft arched windows. The western double staircase in Botticino marble was designed after the large staircase in the former Opera building in Paris. It connects the main concourse with the entrance on the Vanderbilt Avenue. The floor of the concourse is of Tennessee marble and the walls of Caen stone. Link to comment
