Despre activitate
Millions ride New York's subway every day. Few realize it built the city around them.
Ride the historic 42nd Street Shuttle and discover how transportation transformed Midtown Manhattan into one of the world's greatest centers of business, entertainment, and commerce.
From Grand Central Terminal to Times Square, Broadway, the Diamond District, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, and St. Patrick's Cathedral, you'll uncover how moving millions of people every day created billions of dollars in economic activity—and shaped the skyline we know today.
You'll never look at New York's subway the same way again.
