With over 50 pieces filling all the conventional ad units, the station has been transformed into a gallery-esque experience. There is even a toll-free number to allow station goers to access audio information about selected works, as well as a website with information about the project atlanticpacific.

The purpose of the underground campaign is to create a greater awareness of the MoMA collection housed at their Midtown location. For casual passersby, signs posted at payphones throughout the station instruct on how to dial the toll-free MoMA factline for audio information about the works, but planners can download the full audio commentary to iPods, making it that much easier to get a little cultured. In addition to the audio features, a customized project website includes a map and guide to the artworks.
