πŸ‘€ These 1966 images from the #NYTMCollection show a model of R40 #NYCsubway cars. Crafted by industrial designers Raymond Loewy and Associates, and William Snaith, Inc, the aesthetic of the R40 was innovative and modern. It incorporated a β€œnew look” that featured futuristic slanted front ends.

My hot take: residential parking permits are bad because it enshrines street parking as a god-given right for residents, and it would make it harder to remove in the future
