While the attention of many New Yorkers is focused on proposals to rebuild the World Trade Center site, two state agencies are trying to get Gothamites to spend some time and money on downtown’s existing establishments.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority and the Empire State Development Corp. directed Korey Kay & Partners in New York to create transit-related ads to help boost Lower Manhattan’s economy. The ads, which include TV, print and out-of-home, inform New Yorkers that “Getting to downtown is now as easy as 1,2,3 …”—a line that continues with the color-coded circles identifying the 17 train lines that serve the area.
