    Well a few....I'm living in a house that was built in 1903 so there are a lot of small rooms and hallways that can't be used for anything really (except being great subway stops). And the yellow and black lines are outdoor in the garden. You can say that my house is quite the opposite of modern architecture with open design, you know kitchen, living room and dining room etc as one big room. In my house there is a small room for every need instead and the 30 cm interior brick walls makes that impossible to change :-)

    I have some structural steel and a hammer that would beg to differ on the impossible bit.

    But cool little map. Only question is why the two parallel blue lines that go to the same two stations before branching off? (The closest I've been to a subway is one that makes tasty sandwiches.)

    Well sometimes (at least in Stockholm) two different lines share the track for a part of the trip. So at one station you can get on trains from two lines at the same platform. Makes it easier (and more confusing for tourists) to travel and cheaper to build.

    I think that is very common in many cities.
