Penn Station Pathfinder Redesign

In the midst of recent graduated underemployment, I decided to redo the website for my Penn Station Pathfinder project. This project was originally created for a Map Institute class I participated in while I was a graduate student at Pratt Institute's School of Information and Library Science. The class was taught at The New York Public Library's Lionel Pincus and Princess Firyal Map Divison by Matthew A. Knutzen, Geospatial Librarian and curator.
