Description
This is one of the mosaic station signs in the Columbus Circle subway stop. Columbus Circle is at 59th Street and the bottom and west side of Central Park. A number of lines converge at the Columbus Circle stop and it is heavily used by commuters, especially at morning and evening rush hours.
Per Wikipedia: Columbus Circle, named for Christopher Columbus, is a traffic circle and heavily trafficked intersection in the New York City borough of Manhattan, located at the intersection of Eighth Avenue, Broadway, Central Park South (West 59th Street), and Central Park West, at the southwest corner of Central Park. It is the point from which all official distances from New York City are measured. The name is also used for the neighborhood a few blocks around the circle in each direction. To the south of the circle lies Hell's Kitchen, also known as "Clinton", and the Theater District, and to the north is the Upper West Side.
From its inception, Columbus Circle has been a major transportation hub. The M5, M7, M20, and M104 buses all serve the circle. Under it is the 59th Street- Columbus Circle subway station (1 2 A B C D trains).
