Final decision making

Ok, so I am nearing the finalisation stages of my mural. After a few tryouts with layout, positioning etc, I have decided to add just a few more things in terms of imagery to my mural. I have dollar bills & stars 'n' stripes to represent America as a whole & I have famous New York landmarks to put emphasis on the city. I think including other, more subtle imagery to the mural would be a good idea, as this could highlight some of the less significant elements of New York in contrast to the cliche, more famous images we are all used to.

Elements I could consider include:

NYPD
Broadway
The New York Yankees Logo
Methods of travel (Yellow Cabs, Aeroplanes etc)

While these elements of New York are still well known, I think in comparison to what I have already included in my mural, they are somewhat of an afterthought, so I think it could work well to have them contrast the bigger, more famous icons of New York.
