Under the busy streets of New York there are a series of tunnels, a labyrinth.  This massive maze has some areas dimly lit and others are pitch-black.  These are the famous New York City subway tunnels that extend all throughout the five boroughs of the massive city.  Above ground there are a fleet of busses that transport commuters for their destination of choice.

The architectural ingenuity that went into the foundations of the subway tunnels was new to the times during the Industrial Revolution.  The thought put into the web of bus routes, that now transport many passengers daily, makes this mass-transit efficient.  The skyscraper, which was also born during the time of the Industrial Revolution, could not be filled to capacity at the designated hours set for works and businessmen without these innovative forms of transportation.  Though the MTA was the not the first supplier of mass transportation, today it lays as one of the greatest, in the grandest City, New York City.  The MTA does not only hold significance in the past, but also in the present, what it represents.  With so many users of the service the MTA provides because of the business of the city, there are naturally rules to everyone gets to their destination safely.
