Aversion to that Verb

 Grand Central Terminal: Magnificent Beaux Arts structure located at the junction of Forty-second Street and Park Avenue in New York City—a junction and not an intersection because the streets meet but do not cross.

            That the building is often referred to as Grand Central Station does not make that its name. That said, if you’re going to characterize a busy and/or crowded place by saying “It’s like Grand Central Station in here!” you should go ahead and do that because that’s what everyone does, and there are occasions when idiom outweighs* accuracy.

*I’d originally written here “idiom trumps accuracy,” but I’ve developed an aversion to that verb.
