As you travel through the Metropolitan Transportation Authority network in the New York City region, you experience a first-rate art museum of mosaic, terra cotta, bronze, glass, and mixed media sculpture. The founders of the New York City subway believed that every design element in the system should show respect for our customers and enhance their experience of travel. As the century-old transportation network is restored and renewed, decorative elements of the past are preserved and protected even as contemporary art and design are introduced.
