In the hustle and bustle of New York City, it’s easy to overlook the endless treasures that surround us. Next time you are looking to tap into your sense of adventure, check out some of the hidden gems located throughout the city.


McGraw-Hill Waterfall Tunnel

While most of us know McGraw-Hill as the company that publishes textbooks, their Midtown building is home to a small hidden gem. If you make your way over to the western side of the building on 6th Avenue, you will find a plexiglass tunnel that runs beneath a waterfall wall between 48th Street and 49th Street.


The Whispering Gallery in Grand Central

Among the many historical mysteries of Grand Central Terminal you will find the Whispering Gallery. In the bottom level, outside the famed Oyster Bar, you will find people murmuring into the corners of the beautiful archways. While you may find this strange, the secretive walls allow sounds to travel across the domed ceiling. Therefore, when two people stand at diagonal arches, they can hear each other’s whispers.
