The City of Manhattan designated a portion of the public right-of-way on Anderson Avenue and Moro Street to hang street banners as part of the Street Banner Program. This program is used by the City to communicate City goods, services, and events to the public. The program is open to public individuals or entities who wish to communicate their community-wide special events to the public. All banners are subject to application and approval. 

Each entity must submit a Street Banner Permit Application that is subject to approval by City staff. Applications are considered on a first-come, first-served basis. A street banner must inform the public of a community-wide special event and banner display must not  exceed 14  consecutive days in one location. 

Key Highlights:
