I see that both the letter B and number 2 is a sans-serif font. I believe that the MTA uses these typefaces so it’s easy to look at during rush hour when people travel to the subway in a few minutes.
The number 2 font is a well know font used in NYC. The official type font of the New York City subway is Helvetica.
If we notice, it’s a recurring typaces because is simply, sans serif which makes it easy to everybody can understand whatever text like these.
The ‘3’ has a sleek, minimalist look. Its simple, sans-serif design gives it a modern feel. This would be ideal for morden designs—like apartment or office numbers, directories. It could also work in digital interfaces or dashboards due to its clarity.The ‘C’ has a bold, three-dimensional design. The use of green as the primary color with a white outline gives it a vibrant, high-contrast appearance. This typography style is perfect for branding or signage, especially for businesses aiming for high visibility. Pluse, the boldness and 3D effect make it stand out, which would work well for outdoor advertising or logo.
The letter “F” looks like the “F” from the fedex logo. The “F” represents a modern sans-serif style. FedEx uses their own specific typeface which makes this letter “F” very recognizable.
The letter H is sans serif type. The number 6 also seems to be sans-serif. The letter I appears to be a serif type. It also is more thin than the others
the “J” is more casual, the “7” is classic and elegant, while the “K” and “R” are bold and utilitarian, likely for functional or informational use.
The number 7 is almost straight but has a little serif, and the letter K is so straight so that means is just serif typeface.
The letters L and M look like san serifs. The L is seen as a lowercase and thick, adding character to it. The number 8 looks like a simple number seen as in advertisements. The picture for 8 did come out blurry though, try fixing that next time.
