New Subway Map Test |

Posted by gp38/r42 chris on Wed Oct 13 15:06:42 2021 I sure hope not, as the current map is way easier to read. It's no wonder the current map is the longest running map....Leave well enough alone!! https://www.wsj.com/articles/mta-tests-new-subway-map-that-evokes-jettisoned-1972-version-11634119201 |

If you look at that new 'live' map that the MTA is pushing on their site you'll see that that map also shows each route as a separate line.A waste of money as far a I am concerned. All those lines are not necessary. |

There has been an undercurrent of support for the Vignelli ap for years, apparently influenced by those who are convinced that that map was a "work of art."So was "Tilted Arc," which was a horror in its location. They're prejudicing the issue by placing the schematic map, next to a map so busy that it's hard to find the Subway lines. Better they should place the schematic map next to a Hagstrom - style map. |
