The intersection is labelled as a street?

Another was arrested for asking random attendees to tickle him.

Naming an intersection like a street and then signing it with a street name blade sounds like a great way to confuse people.

A new Willkins coffee shop is opening on the corner and if you don't buy your morning Joe there, Kermit will personally kill you.

Why not just rename all of 63rd St. to Sesame St.?

And just a regular one too, not one designed to look like the show logo...

Or even just that one Broadway-bisected block between 8th and 9th - 63rd doesn't directly continue either side due to Lincoln Square and Central Park anyway - starting back up at 5th and between 10 and 11th.

Renaming an intersection a street. Smart. Perfectly logical behavior.
