Park Avenue Viaduct, Elevated road bridge in Murray Hill, Manhattan, United States
The Park Avenue Viaduct carries vehicular traffic on two separate roadways between 40th and 46th Streets, surrounding Grand Central Terminal.
The western section opened in 1919 under Manhattan Borough President Frank Dowling, while the eastern section completed construction in 1928.
The Beaux-Arts structure, designed by Warren & Wetmore and Reed & Stem, features granite approach ramps and steel arches with foliate friezes.
The viaduct facilitates traffic flow around Grand Central Terminal, with the western leg designated for southbound vehicles and service roads at street level.
The space beneath the viaduct between 41st and 42nd Streets transformed from a trolley barn to a restaurant area over the decades.
