Manhattan’s secret railway station

New York needs no introduction. Whether you love it or hate it, and whether you’ve been there or not, we all have our own idea of the place, the city that Cornelius Vanderbilt made his playground. Films, TV series and the media have all helped create an image of its neighbourhoods, its population, its buildings and its monuments. The Statue of Liberty, (designed by Gustave Eiffel no less), the Empire State Building, the sadly famous Ground Zero, the immense Grand Central Terminal station or indeed the Waldorf-Astoria.
