Off-topic: Another connection that should probably be made is between 57 Street–7 Avenue and 7 Avenue. They’re less than 2 Manhattan street blocks apart and provide a better transfer between the Broadway and 8 Avenue lines.
I used to do that transfer by getting in/out at 55th st end of the 57th St station. Also for a time I used to exit 57-7 in decent weather to change to the 1 train at Columbus circle rather than transfer at Times Square.
Like others noted, coming from Astoria we have to change at 57th st 7th avenue to get to the second avenue. Slow, but physically easy. I wonder if it would be worth it walking between 3rd and 60th and 3rd and 63rd. Or maybe just take the . It's still the quickest if you walk briskly from the station.

Great maps... Best fantasy maps I've seen yet. But they need some station name labels.

Maybe the Emergency rescue thing at the end of the stations requires the large mezzanines for staging area or faster egress. I hate to think there could be an attack here, but its right to be prepared.
At least they didn't decorate the stations with Advertising TV screens like Hudson Yards .
