Grand Easton Terminal is the main train station in Liberty City based on Grand Central Terminal which is located in a similar location in New York.


Appearence

Grand Easton Terminal is an squat yet ornate building with its distinctive 3 large glass windows facing Bismark Avenue and Columbus Avenue. Although its origin, Grand Central Station, features a spectacularly decorative central lobby, Grand Easton Terminal's concourse cannot be entered in game. The terminal is constantly in the shadow of the glass and steel monolith, The Getalife Building. The presence of this skyscraper is extremely imposing, especially when you view the Terminal and Skyscraper from Bismark Avenue, which leads up to the centre of the terminal facade from the south, with restaurants on either side of the avenue. However, when lit up at night, The Getalife Building seems less imposing and both the stone terminal and glass skyscraper harmonise with lighting fixtures. Around the terminal, not very far off the ground is a peripheral walkway for pedestrians, sporting benches, lamp posts and news stands.

Subway Accessibility

Although Grand Easton Terminal's concourse is inaccessible, the Terminal still serves as a hub for the City's Rapid Transit System. Every Subway Line converges there, making it a prime tourist area, as well as the Terminal's proximity to central Algonquin attractions, such as the Rotterdam Tower, the Civic Citadel, Star Junction and The Broker Bridge. Middle Park, however, is still a long walk up Columbus Avenue. Although the main terminal is on Columbus Ave and Hematite Street, Subway Exits venture as far out as Burlesque & Iron Street for easier accessibility to Star Junction.
