How many people does it take to change every light bulb in Grand Central Terminal?It won't take a crew to change all the bulbs in your house - at least I hope your house is not that big. But the savings you will realize and the positive impact you will be making will be big.
Six, it turns out. And it’s a full-time job.
On Tuesday, those wiremen — their official title — unscrewed the last remaining incandescent bulbs in the building, replacing them with compact fluorescent bulbs and completing the greening of the lighting system at the bustling station.
Replacing the roughly 4,000 bulbs in the public areas of the terminal — which doesn’t include the platforms, the train yards, or office space — will save an estimated $200,000 a year...
If GCT can do it so can you.
