With stores like Banana Republic and Kenneth Cole, it's no wonder that shopping is divine at Grand Central Terminal in NYC. High style doesn't stop here; this is where it starts. Savvy customers can find health and beauty stores such as the naturally conscious Aveda or Origins and L'Occitane. Also in the easy-to-navigate concourse is AltiTunes for all of your CD desires and Forever Silver for those that can't have enough jewelry. Grand Central Terminal is really your one stop shopping center for the busy traveler or city dweller. Opening in 1913, Grand Central Terminal finally gave travelers another stopover in their long journeys across the state. However as cars began to take over the streets, the station declined and was nearly destroyed. With the recent establishment of a Landmark Preservation Society, Grand Central Terminal was named a landmark and saved from destruction in 1967. With slow and deliberate moves, Grand Central Terminal has become the heart of New York City. Millions of dollars in renovations and restorations later, tourists and travelers can enjoy eating in the dining offerings or enjoying a shopping trip in one of the most revered landmarks in town. Once the target of a wrecking ball, now a destination for all.
