Renaming Boston's subway stations

The Norman B. Leventhal Map & Education Center at the Boston Public Library recently did a collaborative project to rename Boston's subway stations. Some of the resulting names are pretty funny.

They do have a lot of high humor going on there . Ya gotta love it .

It's really good; some of them should be changed!

"BU, more BU, still more BU" lol

Is this posted online anywhere? SInce i currently live in Texas, I cannot easily get to the BPL to see this.

Follow the link at the start of the thread.

Everyone: This MBTA Leventhal Rapid Transit map is basically a classic example of local satire...

If one enjoys satire they will very much understand the interesting station names used on this map...

In reality I am not a fan of totally re-naming long established station names without a significant reason...
Naming rights sales not withstanding - especially if there is a potential to confuse riders...

Imagine the rider CHAOS that something like this in its entirety would cause...The MBTA would probably never
hear the end of the backlash and criticism they would likely get from all angles...

It's still all in good humor nontheless...MACTRAXX

The T has tried several times to sell naming rights to stations, and failed miserably every time as potential sponsors have been unwilling to pony up the cash. I recall that Downtown Crossing had a naming sponsor (Webster Bank?) for a short time but it was largely ignored.

The naming rights experiment I recall was State Street being briefly renamed State/Citizen's Bank, and to further confound and confuse it was only applied on the Blue Line level of the station. Yes, it was a largely ignored epic fail and thankfully (and IMNSHO, rightfully) the concept faded away quickly.

Naming rights in general not anything but confusing. UGH!
