I never liked that Vignelli map because it was merely a diagram without regard to geography. People "underground" do need to get above ground. It was fine for civil engineers, not for the lay person.The brown for water may have been accurate given pollution conditions in the 1960's. On the current map, they should put sharp turns exactly where they are, not the generalist, in-precise mess the J and L lines are in Brooklyn. |
