Plaza Kiosk

Plaza kiosks are installed as part of the NYC Plaza Program, and are designed to activate public spaces with amenities that enhance safety, provide lighting, and generate revenue through concession agreements. Featuring a stainless-steel design, these kiosks integrate seamlessly into plazas and offer functional features like LED lighting, power outlets, and water connections for maintenance and programming. Plaza kiosks are a vital part of the city’s effort to create vibrant and well-maintained public spaces
