Absolutely one of my most favorite subway signs in the city. Look at the beautiful dark bronze against the comfortably spaced letterforms.

It’s rare that such a balance of old and new stays together so well, without going too gimmicky.

Found on a 42nd St. entrance to the 4-5-6 at Grand Central Terminal
