The special signs on the walls leading down to any of New York City's metro stops has raised lettering that allowed us two quite unique ampersands. The first was a raised type ampersand that was painted white on black. That drew my attention right away and was the only one I thought I was photographing RGBisMe got curious after we got back to Asrai & Ravenbo
y's apartment as to whether or not any specific Braille character represented an ampersand. We found that indeed one does and I have drawn a red arrow pointing to it in the photo below. It has the same pattern as the graphic to the right.
