New Yorkers Can Purchase A Limited Amount Of Authentic NYC Street Signs Each Month
We’ve seen through NYC’s collectible MetroCards that celebrate various New York icons that New Yorkers take pride in their city, but soon you’ll be able to own a genuine part of NYC!
NYC DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez announced that the city has officially launched the first of what will be monthly “sign drops” where they’ll sell limited batches of authentic, commemorative NYC street signs. The sign drops will be similar to limited batch “sneaker drops.”
And to kick things off this June for Pride Month, their first sign drop is a Christopher Street/Stonewall Place sign.
A limited batch of 50 signs will be sold online for $75 each via the CityStore, the Official Store of the City of New York. Proceeds will benefit the city’s general fund.
NYC DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez stated:
Now you can own an official piece of New York City: authentic commemorative street signs hand made by DOT. Our monthly sign drops will allow all who love New York City to celebrate the people, places, and special occasions that make this the greatest city in the world. Nothing beats Pride Month and the Pride Parade in New York City, and we are thrilled to commemorate the occasion by offering authentic, limited edition Stonewall Place/Christopher Street signs.
Sign drops will feature signs for iconic NYC streets, commemorations of famous New Yorkers, celebrations of special occasions, and other custom releases. They’ll be released on a monthly basis.
Random fun fact: did you know NYC’s shortest street is only 63 feet long?!
