West 66th Street/Lincoln Center Subway tile mosaic art #1
as seen at NYC's West Lincoln Center stop at Broadway for the downtown 1 train.
Tomorrow, we will begin seeing artist Nancy Spero's tile mosaics that are at this station.
I have photographed tile artworks from several NYC subway stations now, so far, all are westside Manhattan subway lines, including the West 34th Street/Pennsylvania Station (A, C & E trains), Chambers Street (A & C trains), Houston Street (1 train), Pennsylvania "Penn" station (1, 2 & 3 trains) [subway art archives] and, my favorite subway station of all, the American Museum of Natural History station at 81st and Central Park West (B & C trains) [AMNH archives].
