The MTA is seeking a master vendor to manage retail at Grand Central Madison — hoping to turn the new East Side Long Island Rail Road terminal into a
destination shopping hub for Midtown residents and workers., but those strolling through the terminal are sure to notice the conspicuous lack of retail spaces, especially as compared to Grand Central’s Metro-North space upstairs.
Lieber said the agency is looking for a dynamic mix of retail tenants as seen upstairs in the Metro-North space, where riders can peruse the latest Apple Watch, buy leggings at Lululemon, roquefort at Murray’s Cheese, and pierogis at Veselka, before nabbing a Diet Coke at Hudson News as they rush to their train.
Transit officials hope that Grand Central Madison will not just be a transit hub but also a place where local residents and office drones come for lunch or shopping.
