Geocache Description:

I walk by Grand Central often as its very close to my office. Its always bothered me that for such a centrally located space there wasn't any easy grab-and-go caches for the Geocaching commuter set. One day I spotted an ideal location and decided to take the plunge with it. As this block is possibly the most highly-trafficked midtown block I can't promise it woln't get muggled out of existance. Please use stealth in both grabbing and putting back the cache.


I took the name off of what the crowds in the area looked like when I first commuted into the area. At 8 to 9am its wild out there!

For the FTF I've put a certificate to park next to the Jewelry district for $1, which if you drive into Manhattan you'll know is a steal!

Best way to get there from out of town is to take a train into Grand Central. If you're already in the area, take a stroll along 42nd street!
