Sunday, September 28, 2:00 pm New York (EDT) time, In-Person: New York City subway riders have no doubt noticed the brand new subway maps (see below). We’ve been lucky to get expert John Tauranac to speak to New York Map Society members in Greenwich Village. Current and Lapsed members ONLY — with current members getting priority — send your RSVP to kapochunas@gmail.com to get on the waitlist: maximum attendance has been achieved. Here’s what to expect from John Tauranac: “I will give a brief overview of early subway maps, including some privately printed maps, then start talking in greater depth on the MTA maps in the ’40s–’60s, then the ’72 Vignelli schematic, the ’79 MTA map, and the recently released schematic, with comparisons with my own most recent (2020) subway map.”
