J P Morgan Tournament of Champions

This glass-​encased 10-​ton structure (found in the Vanderbilt at Grand Central) is a 21-​by-​32-​foot arena for the world’s biggest squash spectator event. Yes, SQUASH! The best part is, it is free for any passerbyers! The event rums from January 16^th through the 23^rd, a week-​long event/​spectacle, and it has been running for 18 years! You can check out the world champions (such as Mohamed El Shorbagy, Gregory Gaultier, Nick Matthew, Peter Barker, Nicol David, Laura Massaro, Raneem El Weleily, Amanda Sobhy, etc.) face off in tourneys, quarterfinals, semis, and finals. I saw the match between Omar Mosaad and Mohamed Abouelghar, and it was pretty exciting! You also have the option of purchasing tickets (side/​back wall, in which the latter option is more expensive. Sponsored by the JP Morgan company, it’s a neat event to watch when you’re passing through the station.
