An Incredibly Detailed Hand-Drawn Map Of New York City





London-based illustrator and designer Jenni Sparks has hand-drawn an incredibly detailed map of New York City with detailed depictions of individual buildings.



Painstakingly rendered, the illustrated map reflects the denseness and diversity of the metropolis, complete with Sparks’ charming use of quirky icons—for landmark destinations—and typography.



The illustrator has also marked out the subway routes in the colours symbolising the various lines, adding a touch of colour to the largely monochromatic map.



Map-lovers may purchase a framed print of this lovely map over here.
