Background

I made this NYC Subway layer for Google Earth many years ago, mainly to learn the ins-and-outs of Google Earth and KML. But, I also wanted to see the subway routes in the proper proportions on the city grid—which was a difficult view to come by when I made this (this was when we all used dumbphones).

People still download and, presumably, find it useful, so it remains here.
