Often touted as one of the most astounding engineering achievements of the century, the New York subway changed public transportation in the United States forever when it opened in 1904. "New York Underground" (1997) was produced by the award-winning PBSseries, "The American Experience." The film tells true story of how the subway began as an idea after a 1888 blizzard, and went through plenty of changes and interference from politicians before the project even broke ground.
