New York, NY– December 13, 2022 – Branded Cities, North America’s premier and iconic Out-of-Home media company, today announced the launch of their new $9 million dollar digital spectacular located at 3 Times Square. Previously known as the Thomson Reuters digital display, the former 6-screen spectacular has been renamed as “The Midtown Financial,” or “MiFi” for short, and has consolidated its digital presence into a massive 2-screen large-format design.

Midtown Manhattan, which contains the Times Square subdistrict, is the largest central business district in the world and is a key economic driver for New York City as a whole. The area is home to the headquarters of major national and international businesses, as well as the Nasdaq Stock Exchange.

At over 10,500 total square feet, the full-motion digital display also marks a significant 40% increase in size over its predecessor and will provide brands with a state-of-the-art canvas for their campaigns. With its towering spire, the Midtown Financial ascends nearly 300 feet off grade, making it one of the largest and highest reaching displays in all North America. When paired with Branded Cities’ digital spectacular at Nasdaq, the new TS2 (Nasdaq and Midtown Financial) delivers over 20,500 square feet of digital signage, allowing a true domination of Times Square’s southern bow tie.

“This massive digital display will serve as a vibrant addition to the neighborhood and a perfect complement to the repositioning effort we are undertaking at 3 Times Square,” said Michael Rudin, Executive Vice President at Rudin.  “We are proud to collaborate with Branded Cities in creating a new visual icon that reflects and amplifies Times Square’s enduring energy, vitality and vibrancy.”
