xcellent pictures. The 1957 shot is notable and looks like it was much brighter than it actually was. There are May 1966 photos of Grand Central on the shuttle line that looks extremely dark and dank after the rebuild following the fire but before the tiling and fluorescent lights were put in as shown in 1968 photos.
The photographer used the available light method as in no flashbulbs.
He either used a wider lens aperture or misjudged and overexposed it. Here's the same photo darkened.
