Re:WHO OWNS GRAND CENTRAL TERMINAL?

Penn Central Corp and its successor the American Financial Group continued to own GCT and the surrounding trackage while leasing them to the MTA. In December 2006 Argent Ventures bought GCT from AFG (fmr. Penn Central).

MTA does have an option to buy the terminal in 2017. Otherwise the lease extends through 2274.

As for the improvements - the MTA is collecting rent from subleasing the retail space for one thing. It is just like any other commercial lease where the lessee makes whatever improvements they deem necessary to run their business...
