The NYC subway is one of many symbols that stereotypically represents New York City. With the iconic logo and typeface, it’s certainly one of the most important things to see in New York City. Which is good, because it’s also quite useful for getting around (often quicker than a taxi)!

Same here, Cathy—I love me some public transport. Vienna has a pretty nice system, I’ll agree.
I find NYC to be fun to walk around with, but I actually get turned around quite a bit—even with the clear grid system.
