New York City Department of Transportation requested design proposals for orientation elements to aid pedestrians on route to their destinations as they exit from below grade subway stations or descend to the street from above ground platforms.
Faculty from FIT, Pratt, NYU, Parsons, and Fordham engaged individual students and student teams to develop ideas for compass decals for sidewalks adjacent to pre-selected subway stations.
Five proposals from each school will be on view at the Center for Architecture from December 9th through January 2009.
NYCDOT Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan will moderate the discussion of the design competition and resulting proposals. Speakers include:
Marc Wurzel, General Counsel, Grand Central Partnership
Sylvia Harris, Graphic Designer
Mark Randall, Worldstudio, Inc.
The conversation was very informative!

Please give me a credit line for my Roosevelt Ave. design.
Thanks,

I'm in favor of implementing that kind of design all around New York and I believe people will like it too.
