AM New York and Subway Ads at Grand Army Plaza
Friday, October 17, 2008
For the second day in a row an AM New York guy has been handing out papers along side the now familiar Metro lady. Is AM New York is trying to establish a foothold in the Slope, or are they just temporarily expanding to take advantage of this news-filled election season? While I have already made my allegiance with the Metro, I wonder if other North Slopers will embrace the newly available paper. Either way, I think having more competition at the stop is a good thing.
Also, when I hopped onto the 3 train this morning, I was jolted out of my commute coma when I saw large ads on the outside of the train. The ads were for a new History Channel show called Cities of the Underworld. The show explores the underground systems below the world's major metropolitan areas, so the advertisement's placement is actually pretty relevant. Will New Yorkers be upset by yet another marketing invasion into their daily lives, or are we already numb to it?
