Apparently, it's a different one from the one I photographed a little over 10 years ago.I posted a link to this photo (obviously at a different location) on this SubTalk thread. This is most likely a different position in the station. |

The routes that I see listed are as follows:IRT: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, SS-42, SS-SF IND: A, AA, B, CC, D, E, EE, F, GG BMT: J, K, LL, M, N, QB, RR, SS-Fr, SS-Cl It obviously reflects service as it was in the mid-1970's, the absence of the 8 train definitely puts this map around 1974. The K service that it shows runs from the Eastern Parkway station in East New York to the 57th Street/6th Avenue station in Manhattan. I wonder. It's been 10 years since we've heard reports of a Vignelli map appearing in this station. Will we be hearing an almost identical story again in 2020? Only time will tell. |
