... that sculptures of rats outside the Graybar Building, near
Grand Central Terminal, were included to signify New York City's role as a "great transportation centre"? Source: "Rats". The New Yorker. September 9, 1933. p. 10.
ALT1:... that New York City's Graybar Building was built above an active railroad track serving
Grand Central Terminal? Source: "Track Is Still In Use As Skyscraper Rises". The New York Times. August 29, 1926
The article is neutral, meets the required length, and is sufficiently referenced. Article was created/redirected on the same day as this nomination.
