What's Happening in the Big City? OOH in New York

New York, Times Square and OOH

New York - a unique place in the world, famous for thousands of out of home (OOH) advertisements, both traditional and digital. Its icon is Times Square, a plaza in Midtown, the central part of Manhattan.

New York is definitely the most valuable OOH advertising market in the United States. Population density and an extensive public transportation network make it an exceptional city for advertising. The scale of investment dedicated to DOOH expansion proves this. High-quality display advertisements are ubiquitous. Visible at all stops and stations, they provide plenty of space for information.

Why is Times Square a place where OOH advertising is present in such intensity? Because Times Square has the highest pedestrian traffic in all of New York. Did you know that the number of visitors to this place last year averaged over 350,000 people daily?

This extraordinary place attracting so many people is also an amazing and multicolored DOOH landscape. Among the most unique media is the ABC Supersign - a digital OOH screen with an area of over 342 square meters. This medium is famous for its characteristic, eye-catching, wavy LED modules.
