Whether or not you agree with his assessments -- as a designer, he (unsurprisingly) has some general aesthetic preferences -- Booth's blog is a really fun way to explore all sorts of transit design, ranging from <a href="http://transitmaps.tumblr.com/post/12467275440/paris-metro">transit design classics</a> to <a href="http://transitmaps.tumblr.com/post/38408161835/literary-london-tube">transit-inspired creative art</a> to <a href="http://transitmaps.tumblr.com/post/43501142873/josephine-county"> truly disastrous maps</a>. I know the first post is about one of his personal projects, but he only rarely posts about his own projects on this blog. His <a href="http://www.cambooth.net/">personal blog</a> has more details on that kind of stuff -- Transit Maps is almost entirely focused on external designs. tag:metafilter.com,2013:site.128029 Mon, 13 May 2013 09:34:22 -0800 design infrastructure maps transit transportation andrewesque http://www.metafilter.com/113050/When%2DODOTs%2Dnot%2Dout%2Dplowing%2Dsnow%2Dor%2Drepairing%2Dthe%2Droads%2Dwe%2Dalso%2Denjoy%2Dblowing%2Dup%2Dold%2Dbridges Yesterday, the Ohio Dep't of Transportation <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVNM8LFVzUE">blew up the Fort Steuben bridge</a> between Steubenville, OH, and Weirton, WV.
