Being that the MTA is dicking us around with service cuts and fare hikes, we here at The Subway Art Blog propose a redesign of the subway map.  Said redesign can be found above.  Oh, and we also propose renaming the Third Avenue Bridge, the Vas Deferens Bridge.

Retro Subway Maps

There is something about the subway that seeps into our collective subconscious as New Yorkers.  It is a part of us, therefore its history fascinates many of us.  One piece of subway history I find interesting is the subway map and its evolution over the 100 years it has been around.  NYCSubway.org has an extensive collection of historical subway maps, some of which can be seen above.  For the entire collection follow the link below.
