TBTA QUEENS-MIDTOWN TUNNEL (New York) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features the distinctive road sign of the TBTA Queens–Midtown Tunnel, a vital artery connecting Manhattan and Queens in New York City. The design is a bold visual statement, immediately recognizable to anyone familiar with the city's infrastructure.
The Road Sign Iconography
The design faithfully replicates the official TBTA sign, a circular (round) shield. The stark contrast of the white background against the black elements creates high visibility, a critical function of the real-world sign.
Color and Typography
The sign adheres to the TBTA's standard color scheme: white background with black lettering and border. The central inscription, “QUEENS–MIDTOWN TUNNEL,” is presented in a clear, sans-serif font, stacked for easy readability. Along the outer rim, the text "TRIBOROUGH BRIDGE AND TUNNEL AUTHORITY" (or "MTA BRIDGES AND TUNNELS") further identifies the governing body.
Symbolism
The sign itself is a symbol of navigation and direction. It signifies the entrance and approach to a crucial transportation link. Wearing this design is a subtle nod to the city’s dynamic transportation network, marking a connection to a specific route and point within the metropolitan area.
