The Downtown Alliance's Streetscape program has given lower Broadway a sophisticated new look that is contemporary yet classic. The design provides an complimentary backdrop for the varied styles of Downtown's architecture, while adding harmony to its streetscape. The two main components are street lighting and street furniture.


Street Lighting

More than 100 elegant street lamps have been installed along lower Broadway, brightening block after block with a natural light. Downtown's streets are among the safest in New York, and that feeling of security is enhanced by good lighting.


Street Furniture

The Downtown Alliance has also installed new street furniture along lower Broadway. Each element is designed to work together visually, and to bring order, elegance, and cohesion to the neighborhood. Sleek and functional, the furniture matches the style and color scheme of the new street lights.
