Artist Matt Mullican created an 8-by-68-foot sandblasted black granite mural that presents a timeline of the history of the station site, atop which sits an office tower. The subway station was rehabilitated in concert with the office development. Mullican employs an iconographic visual vocabulary through which he reveals the site's past as rural, occupied by a cabin, and as a previous site of Madison Square Garden. Depictions of maps and aerial views are also part of the large mural. Mullican's pictographs reward the repeat visitor with layers of meaning as the piece is viewed again and again. Mullican communicates through a simplified visual system, but his signs provide deeper meaning to those who look. 

Matt Mullican received his BFA from CalArts in 1974 and rose to prominence as a member of the "Pictures Generation." His work is concerned with systems of knowledge, meaning, language, and signification. Mullican also works with the relationship between perception and reality, between the ability to see something and the ability to represent it. Mullican's work has been exhibited nationally and internationally since the early 1970s at numerous venues.
