Yep.. I believe native New Yorkers will truly appreciate this item - it’s called the New York City “Walk/Don’t Walk” road tested chair and it’s designed by artist John Carter. Having been born and raised in NYC and now living in Los Angeles, I can truly say that I appreciate and even miss elements of that great city.  The classic Walk/Don’t Walk signs are something truly unique in many ways to the Big Apple.

So yes – this chair is made of two NYC walk/don’t walk signs and YES – they work! The legs are made from reconfigured and customized steel street sign brackets with galvanized heavy duty self leveling feet. If you really miss the city, you can even configure the chair to come with “scuffs and stains” or.. you can just have it nice and clean.  Be prepared to pay a pretty penny for this chair though - it costs a cool $3700 over at UncommonGoods.com.
