NY Train Project. He first tackled Manhattan and then in 2015, completed all 157 stations Brooklyn. Now, he’s finished the Bronx. He tells Untapped Cities:
Chang is a graphic designer and founder of the firm Same Tomorrow. He’s shared some of the mosaic illustrations with us here, but the most fun is navigating the NY Train Project website yourself. Its interface, arranged by line and borough, makes it feel like you’re moving between stations and Chang includes fun facts with each station. For example, 242 St.-Van Cortlandt Park is the only elevated Victorian Gothic terminal station, he writes. Pelham Parkway is the only subway station not built to function as a subway, Whitlock Avenue is across from the abandoned Westchester Avenue station, East 143rd Street is the least used station in the Bronx, and many more very “untapped” like facts.
