86th Street and Broadway

Artwork in the 1 train station: dreamy or disturbing? I can’t decide.

Here’s a guide to all the official artwork in various stations. Here’s a guide to graffiti (not just on trains). And here’s a guide to creating your own art (writing) while commuting, in the form of stories from various writers about how they do it. (I never really write on the subway, but I do make notes of things that are too good to pass up. The thin and tiny moleskine notebook is perfect for this.)
