New York’s Grand Central Terminal Helped Provide the Blueprint for American Cities. It Happened by Accident
Early on the morning of January 8, 1902, two young women, Sadie Scott and Minnie Rice, stood on a snow-covered train platform in New Rochelle, New York, waiting for the 7:48 A.M. express that would take them to their jobs as stenographers in New York City.
Nearby stood F.S. Cowdrey, a banker on Wall Street, and 21-year-old H. Frank Crosby, who worked at the American Locomotive Company on Broad Street.
