This map of New York City was commissioned by Tythe Design in 2020, as a love letter to all of the efforts to stay resilient throughout the early days of the pandemic. The title of the map is: “Reasons We Love New York City: Stories of Resiliency During Crisis.”
The map tells the story of New York City as a “resilient city,” which, according to Tythe Designs, “is always evolving to sustain a sense of place and belonging for all residents, ensuring all people can adequately live, work, play, engage, and thrive. In short, a Resilient City promotes a just society.”
