==Baross tér redevelopment==
The facade of Budapest Keleti faces onto a large three-sided plaza called [[Baross tér]]. In 2005, work began to construct a pedestrian concourse and exits to allow better access between the Keleti pályaudvar Station on [[Line 4 (Budapest Metro)|Budapest Metro Line 4]] and long-distance train facilities. The statue of [[Gábor Baross]], for whom the square is named, was returned to its location in December 2013 and work completed in March 2014.<ref>{{cite press release| url=http://www.metro4.hu/hirek_reszletes.php?id=921| title=The statue of Gábor Baross in a worthy place again| date=6 December 2014| publisher=Mayor's Office of the Municipality of Budapest| access-date=2014-12-02}}</ref>
