14 DAY TRIAL // The sun has set on the era of the ancient “Walk, Don’t Walk” signs, installed in New York in 1952. They are now considered useless, after authorities have decided to replace them with energy-efficient, modern LED prototypes.
Felix Lighting Specialists, an eco-conscious company from the UK, wants to give a new meaning to these no-longer-needed signs, by diverting them from landfills and tuning them into a gold mine.
Nobody ever said that recycled products had to be affordable. In this case, an ingenious lamp launched on the market by the enterprise costs up to £825 (€998/$1,278) and can be purchased online.
By following this path, the company makes sure the iconic walking signs immortalized in classic productions such as Taxi Driver, Saturday Night Fever or Tootsie will never be forgotten.
They are made of aluminum and customers can choose between Classic NYC Yellow or the Limited Edition Aluminum.
