Cool post man. Although, I think the best example of bas relief you have is actually the one in the picture showing Bleeker's tiled columns. That is one station I hope gets a full restoration. I doubt it though, considering what happened to the great bas reliefs at 14th (at least you can still see them).

You also missed something else the 90's brought: entirely new designs. Canal St BMT is the only one I can think of, and it's one of my favorite mosaics for that reason. That's what I was talking about when I meant that restoring stations to their old look was so BLAH to me. I like to see new things rather then restoring old which looks just like everything else.
