Call me, a GCT vet, naive, but the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Central_Terminal">GCT</a> theory sounds fine to me, based on the translation of the lyrics at:
http://alizee-reflections.net/grand_central.html . Sadly, the translator is NO New Yorker: not only is Broadway not a synonym for 42nd Street, on which GCT sits, but it runs several blocks away. By the way, it is a long walk from GCT to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiffany_%26_Co.#Flagship_store">Tiffany's</a>, where Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly had her famous <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakfast_at_Tiffany%27s_(film)#Plot">breakfast</a>, a half-century ago. (Of late we here have compared A to Audrey.)
Should you care to depart GCT and bump into the guy who played Lolita's stepdad, watch Hitchcock's <i>North by Northwest</i>.
