Day in and day out, MTAPD K-9s keep watchful snouts on Grand Central. The team’s mission is to protect commuters and get everyone home safe.

K-9 TALES

JERRY & SERGEANT PAUL FRUSCIAge: 3.5 years

Named in honor of: NYC Police Officer John “Jerry” Scarangella

How does Jerry help you? He’s always ready to go to work with a smile on his face. That helps us stay motivated.

What is it like being stationed at Grand Central? We get to see and meet lots of interesting people. Recently, Jerry got a pat on the head and a word of encouragement from Governor Andrew Cuomo.

Favorite toy: The kong! Sometimes we stuff it with treats, but we do try to limit the junk food. Jerry is a professional, after all!

BUCK & OFFICER JOSEPH TERRACCIANOAge: 6 years

Named in honor of: Marine Lance Corporal Gregory T. Buckley of Oceanside, NY

What is it like being stationed at Grand Central? During training, Buck had to overcome a lot of environmental challenges including loud noises, crowds of people, riding on elevators and escalators, and heights.

Favorite thing to do: Buck enjoys relaxing in bed, going for walks, and playing fetch in the park.

Favorite toy: A tug toy, which he gets for sniffing out hidden explosives.

PATTY & OFFICER ROBERT BAILEAge: 8 years

Named in honor of: Yonkers Firefighter Patrick Joyce

What’s he like at work? Patty is known to draw a crowd when people pet him due to his very playful demeanor.

Favorite thing to do: He loves to wait in the front yard and greet the kids getting off the school bus.

How does Patty assist you? Without impeding train traffic, K-9s can search areas and check unattended bags 10X faster than an officer.

Favorite toy: A rubber ball attached to a rope.

ARTIE & OFFICER FRED WEEKSAge: 3.5 years

Named in honor of: Larchmont Police Officer Arthur DeMatte

Special skills: In 2015, Artie placed 2nd in USPCA Region #7 Explosive Detection Trials.

How does Artie help you? He is a Belgian Malinois, which is a highly trainable breed that thrives on advanced obedience, trick, and agility training. They are famous for being so “in tune” with their handlers that they can literally stay one step ahead.

Favorite toy: Artie’s favorite toy is a half-inflated basketball; he will run around the yard with it for hours.

DID YOU KNOW? K-9s are named in honor of fallen military service members, firefighters, and law enforcement officers.

THE 2017 GRAND CENTRAL SPECIAL OFFERS BOOK

MARBLE AND TERRAZZO FLOOR REPAIRMore than 45,000 square feet of Tennessee pink marble and 67,000 square feet of terrazzo have withstood the scuffling of millions of feet for 104 years. In an effort to minimize disruption to visitors and commuters, Metro-North has been replacing cracked tiles and pouring new terrazzo at a rate of 5% of the floor’s surface area each year since 2007.

To acquire an identical match to the Tennessee pink marble, one of the original quarries was reopened to cut indistinguishable tiles. You can try looking for the shiny new sections of the floor, but you won’t find them! The work of the master stone masons not only helps prevent future cracking but also matches the historic floor perfectly.

EAST SIDE ACCESS PROJECTWonder why part of the Lower Level Dining Concourse is closed?

The MTA is bringing Long Island Rail Road commuters to GCT! They are working to construct stairways and escalators that will connect Grand Central’s Lower Level to the 10-block-long, 350,000-square-foot LIRR concourse and eight-track train terminal being built beneath Grand Central.

Other significant work will take place in the historic Biltmore Room later this year, where escalators and an elevator will be installed to take passengers directly to and from the LIRR Concourse. By connecting newly mined tunnels in Manhattan and Queens and existing tunnels under the East River, the East Side Access project will increase the LIRR’s capacity into Manhattan, and dramatically shorten travel time for Long Island and Queens commuters traveling to the east side of Manhattan.

It’s no surprise that at 104 years old Grand Central needs a little TLC. We are constantly working to improve this

historic building, our accessibility, and our visitors’ experiences.

BEHIND the BARRICADES

LED LIGHTING ON PERSHING SQUARE VIADUCT Since late December, the Pershing Square viaduct in front of Grand Central Terminal has been brilliantly illuminated with color-changing LED lighting each night. The lighting, which further enhances the grandeur of Grand Central’s façade, will serve as a beacon to pedestrians anywhere along 42nd Street to find their way to the Terminal. Starting a new tradition, the lights will change color to recognize various occasions and holidays throughout the year.

The new space in the Market features cakes, tarts, and éclairs among the sweet and savory baked snacks, as well as the bakery’s signature breads.

THE CAMPBELL BAR Vanderbilt Avenue

Gerber Group is reopening The Campbell Bar and Terrace, after a complete restoration, directed by the internationally acclaimed design and architecture firm, Ingrao, Inc. Located directly off Vanderbilt Avenue, adjacent to Cipriani Dolci, The Campbell Bar features an expansive collection of spirits, wines, and locally brewed craft beers. Gerber Group’s selections of classic and modern cocktails are complimented by a menu of elevated bar fare. The Campbell Bar is also open for lunch daily at 12PM, serving soups, salads, and sandwiches.

RITUALSLexington Passage

Newly opened in the Lexington Passage, Rituals Cosmetics is a unique luxury lifestyle brand. Created in Paris in 2000 by a passionate international team of top talents from the perfume and design industry, it is the number one bath and body brand in Europe. Rituals helps you slow down and find happiness in the smallest of things. It is their passion to turn everyday routines into more meaningful rituals.

WOK CHI Lower Level Dining Concourse

Florida-based Wok Chi opens its second New York location in the Terminal this spring, bringing its fast-casual Asian stir-fry concept and fresh dim sum to the Lower Level Dining Concourse. Wok Chi defies Chinese take-out misconceptions with healthful and flavorful stir-fry classics, clean ingredients, fresh dim sum, and desserts — promising “no batter, just what matters,” and bringing good energy (“Chi”) and a great experience to its guests.

Artisanal breads, European cosmetics, stir-fry classics, and the return of The Campbell Bar this spring.
