Grand Central Terminal is an incredible space - visually and in terms of space. Its huge ceilings and marbled hard surfaces lend it an amazing reverb, and as an extremely busy rail terminal, it's almost always full of people rushing to their next destination, so there's a constant reverb-drenched hum in the space at all times, interspersed with sharp interjections from the PA announcements, which cut through the hubbub.
