I'm becoming quite the fan. This just goes to show that even a building that was built during the days of steam powered locomotives can find efficiencies. (Built in stages between 1871 and 1900, it wasn't officially known as Grand Central Station until the later date). I can't imagine any other place on earth that can capture and recycle five tons of newspaper. Another great story Ariel. I’m becoming quite the fan.

The solar panels would have to be about 40 stories above Grand Central. :) The roof of Grand Central Station is the Met Life building.

Most countries these days only work on mega projects, which only concentrates on looks and extravaganza but they often forget that existing buildings with a touch of eco-thinking can be even better ;) I think they did a very good job to upgrade and ensure that the building is eco-friendly.
