I am now presenting NYC subway tile artworks as photographed by me at the West 86th street subway platform at Broadway, where the local 1-train stops. This platform was decorated by an artist, Nitza Tufino and a group of students from the Grosvenor House school, and depicts scenes from typical NYC life on the UWS (Upper West Side) -- one of my favorite Manhattan neighborhoods.

Chambers Street Subway Art #16
as seen at NYC's Chambers Street stop for the A and C trains.
I am not proud of this image because it is blurry, but because I
snapped it while recovering from a broken shoulder, I guess I
shouldn't expect much. I plan to return to retake this image so it
