Grand Central Terminal (New York City)

Grand Central Terminal is spread over 49 acres, has 44 platforms and 67 tracks on two levels. It is the world’s largest train station by number of platforms and area occupied. Fun Fact: The ceiling of the Main Concourse showcases a beautiful astrological mural of the Mediterranean winter sky, complete with 2500 stars. However, most of the painting is actually upside down, i.e. it doesn’t depict the sky when looking up, but from God’s point of view looking down (as was tradition in medieval times). This was noted shortly after the terminal opened, but the mural was never corrected.
