#MapMondays – The future subway system without federal funding. This map illustrates the devastating reality of public transit in New York City if the MTA is unable to secure $12 billion in federal relief by the end of the year, reducing subway and bus service by 40% and commuter rail by 50%. The map was created by Riders Alliance, who compared the 2010 service cuts (removal of the V and W trains with 110 bus routes shortened or cut) to the current budget shortfall, concluding the MTA would have to cut all service on the 1, 2, 3, 7, B, D, F, M, G, J, and Z lines and the Franklin Avenue S. Last week the MTA presented a budget proposal that would nearly cut the service in half and lay off over 9,000 transit workers. The Long Island Railroad and Metro North would also see major cuts. #mapmonday #subway #publictransit #mta #nycsubway #transit #railfan #midtown #nyhistory #nyctransit #nytransit #lirr #metronorth #grandcentral #transitmap #brooklyn #thebronx #queensny #skyline #mtanyc #urbanism #transportationplanning #urbanplanning #manhattan (at MTA Subway - 42nd St/Times Square/Port Authority Bus Terminal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH8og_qHI4g/?igshid=ftdanflwfgim

Alison Saar's "copacetic" (2018) at the Metro-North Railroad Harlem - 125 Street station celebrates Harlem’s legacy and rich history. Imagery in the glass artwork is created from woodcut prints and features panoramic scene of dancers, singers, musicians and patrons enjoying Harlem’s heyday of the 1930s and 40s, which as she explains, “gives a nod to the work of the many great African American artists of the Harlem Renaissance that have used the same medium in their practice.” In "Mirror, Mirror" now on view at the Williamson Gallery at Scripps College (and virtually on the gallery’s website), original prints from throughout Saar's career confront issues of race and gender with a mix of bitter humor and tenderness.
