In celebration of Sesame Street’s 40th Birthday the gang got their own corner in New York City! Now the corner of 64th and Broadway reads 123 Sesame Street and 11/10 is officially Sesame Street Day.

This makes me happy for so many reasons but the main one is that Sesame Street’s new corner is right by my favorite movie theater in New York City, The Walter Reade.  This means every time I go see a movie there (they have an awesome Italian Neo-Realist series happening now) that I’ll be able to pass by a piece of my favorite television show of all time.

If you live in New York City check it out when you can and if be sure to catch up on our latest Sesame Street posts:
