IIRC the current form of Grand Central station in New York was built when they buried all the tracks leading to it underground, to free up for building what is now some of the most expensive real estate in the world.
- TylerE 6y agoYou're thinking of Penn Station, not Grand Central. Grand Central was always that way. Penn Station was originally above ground, and then rebuilt underground in the 60s, beneath Madison Square Garden, built at the same time. Grand Central has a fairly large and very ornate above-ground structure taking up half a city block.
