MTA NYC Subway Map (Post Hurricane Sandy) November 1, 2012 (Silk Poster)

Hurricane Sandy was a powerful and destructive storm that struck the northeastern United States in late October 2012. It was one of the most damaging hurricanes in U.S. history, causing widespread flooding, power outages, and destruction—especially in New York and New Jersey. Impact on the New York City Subway: Historic Flooding: On the night of October 29, 2012, a record storm surge flooded large portions of Lower Manhattan, including subway tunnels. Subway Closures: The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) shut down the entire subway system before the storm hit. After the surge, seven East River tunnels and several other lines were severely flooded. Damage: Saltwater caused extensive damage to electrical systems, signals, and tracks. Recovery: Some subway services resumed within days, but full recovery took months to years, with long-term infrastructure repairs costing billions of dollars. Sandy exposed the vulnerability of NYC's transit infrastructure to extreme weather, leading to major resilience and flood-protection initiatives in the years that followed.
