Grand Central Whispering Corner

There are secrets and hidden treasures all over New York City, and I discovered one last night in Grand Central Station. There is a whispering corner right in front of the Grand Central Oyster Bar & Restaurant where I was able to whisper into one corner and have my sister hear what I was saying across the room. You and a friend can stand at opposite corners and the sound waves are able travel across the archway, which allow the recipient to hear your message without the rest of the bystanders ease dropping on the conversation. Next time you have a free moment and you are in Grand Central, walk down to the dining concourse and check out the hallway in the middle and in front of the Oyster Bar.
