MTA officials said more than 1 million LIRR riders have traveled through the new station so far. The terminal opened in January, about 25 years after the project began. Opening the connection was among the last checklist items for the completion of the MTA’s $11.1 billion East Side Access megaproject, which links the LIRR to Grand Central. The work on the Biltmore Room included replacing marble floors and repainting the century-plus old room. “We have reclaimed the use of this beautiful space for the use of Metro-North customers, but also Long Island Rail Road customers, people passing back and forth between the two systems, creating a connection that is just going to recognize the way our customers use the service.” “It really didn’t exist as a space the way that you see it here today,” Catherine Rinaldi, president of Metro-North and interim president of the LIRR, said at a news conference Monday. In recent years, the room housed a florist and a newsstand. MTA officials said they were getting relatively little use out of the Biltmore Room, which once connected to the old Biltmore Hotel.
