Visual Complexity: Subway Maps

I remember the data visualisation project that I had for my design class … it made me realize how difficult these things are!!! Here are two versions of NYC’s subway maps … I actually like the old one rathe than the one we have right now.

1.

New York Subway Map (1972): Massimo Vignelli for MTA

2.

NYC Subway Redesign: Eddie Jabbour
