New York's subway has much improved recently. Stations have become cleaner and many works of art have been integrated. The following series of photos tries to give a rough overview of the variety of station designs with a slight emphasis on the more interesting stations. On this virtual tour we will work our way from Central Park via Lower Manhattan to Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island.
