Compass Rose Decals Coming to subway exits

I went to http://nyc.gov to find some way to complain about the planned $1 taxi surcharge and found out about this. I'm so happy.
New York City Transportation Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan, Grand Central Partnership (GCP) President/CEO Fred Cerullo and MTA CEO Lee Sander today announced that temporary directional compass decals have been placed on the sidewalk at four subway exits around Midtown Manhattan. The compasses tell pedestrians what street they are on, and what street lies one block from them in each direction.

That is indeed awesome. I hate having to walk a long block in order to find out I'm going the wrong way.
