As an American who has studied in Helsinki (and not an American who agrees at all with our current admin don’t worry) I thought it was really funny seeing New York City’s newly unveiled subway/metro map! Reminds me of another design I’m sure we’re all aware of! Sure you could say it sort of also resembles other major metro maps like Paris, Tokyo, London etc but it seems very similar to Helsinki. Let me know if I am wildly wrong I don’t want to perpetuate the dumb American stereotypes 😅

It…looks like a metro map
The original stylised one, which did not show the actual/true layout was done for the London Underground in 1933.

For me this looks very much like Stockholm transport map.
