It really does look beautiful.

If you could find something to put in the upper left, or have Staten Island as a separate map, it would make it look more pleasing to the eye upon first inspection.

It's a really nice touch with the notes about stations without entrances. 200-Dyckman on the A is another one with no northbound entrance. If it isn't getting too carried away, I would also recommend listing whether or not a station has a crossunder or not.

Since the 1 is soon to no longer be a loop track, I would make it a single line going into the station.

It looks bizarre having two separate lines on the PATH out of WTC, especially when they aren't following the same path (no pun).

Woodlawn station has a typo on "Jerome" .... what's the story with having the Bx12 line outlined? As far as I could see, none of the other bus lines are.....

There's no label for LIC and Hunter's Point LIRR stations...I would also check the layers where the Port Washington/Main line split is.

Technically Metropolitan & Lorimer St are separate stations, with a bit of a walk to transfer between them...since it looks like you were doing this with other corridor stations, you might want to fix that for consistency.

And a slight nitpick, but it seems like EVERY map does this wrong, including the official map.....the E terminal at Chambers St is on the EAST side of the A/C terminal.

There's also inconsistencies with the station dots. What does a black dot in a white circle mean? What does a white circle with a black border mean?

Keep up the great work, fellow cartographer!
