  1. Hi, after 10 years of living in Financial District NY and being fascinated by the amazing art of City Hall´s old subway stop, I was wondering if Mr. Coppola would ever sell me a print of his Citty Hall subway station sketch. Love the art and amazing talent to draw such a unique and hidden subway stop. TIA!
