Sesame Street is a fictional street located in Manhattan[1] (a borough in New York City). The street serves as the location for the American children's television series of the same name, which is centered around 123 Sesame Street, a fictional brownstone building.[2]
In honor of Sesame Street's 50th anniversary, On 1 May 2019, the intersection between Broadway and West 63rd Street was officially renamed Sesame Street. A host of famous characters from the show joined Mayor Bill de Blasio for the unveiling. An actual sign was placed at the intersection. A similar temporary change was made in 2009 for the 40th anniversary while this sign was a permanent addition. Its location was chosen due to it being near the Sesame Workshop.[3]
