In the style of Vignelli NY Subway Map Design of the 1970s

In August 1972, The New York City subway map designed by Massimo Vignelli first appeared on the walls of every subway station, every train car, and millions of pocket maps.  It became a landmark in modernist information design and was sometimes scorned by transit riders for non-geographical design. Vignelli regarded the map as one of his finest creations.
