Hi all,

Thought I’d share this NY Times article about the passing of Michael Hertz, whose firm created the modern NY transit map: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/25/nyregion/michael-hertz-dead.html.

I love the quote: “In transit map circles, Mike was a giant…” I guess that’s a circle many of us are familiar with!

Best,

Chris
