"Insect and Birds Ride the Subway" Subway Tip by von.otter
Subway, New York City: 274 reviews and 244 photos
“There are no words that can tell the hidden spirit of the wilderness, that can reveal its mystery, its melancholy and its charm.”
— Theodore Roosevelt, (1858-1919) founder of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, his hometown
The 81th Street subway stop serves the American Museum of Natural History on Central Park West and West 81th Street.
As an acknowledgment of the location, the walls of the subway station at West 81th and Central Park West feature mosaics in the forms of insects, birds, reptiles and other creatures. My favorite are the parrots perched on the stair rail (see photo #4).
Ride New York’s subway system. It saves money; it saves energy; it is entertaining.
