Cost of a Wild Posting® Campaign in New York

New York City has the widest pricing range of any Wild Posting® market in the U.S. What you pay depends on three things: which neighborhood, how many surfaces, and how long the campaign runs. Walkable corridors like SoHo, Meatpacking, and Bedford Ave in Williamsburg cost more than mid-corridor stretches — and within Brooklyn, Williamsburg and Greenpoint command a premium over Bushwick or Bed-Stuy.

Here’s the honest range we see on real campaigns:

Value neighborhoods (Hell's Kitchen, Harlem, Astoria, parts of Bushwick) $3,500 to $4,000

The further you get from NYC’s premium walkable corridors, the lower the price drops. Strong value if your audience clusters Uptown, in outer Brooklyn, or in Queens.

Core NYC corridors (East Village, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Long Island City, parts of Chelsea): $5,000 to $7,000

This is the bulk of what brands run. East Village, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, LIC — strong foot traffic at a reasonable spend.

Premium corridors (SoHo, Meatpacking, Nolita, West Village, Bedford Ave):$5,000 to $10,000+

The highest-demand surfaces in the country. Worth it for fashion, beauty, and culture-driven launches where the neighborhood IS the message.

Where to Run Wild Posting® in New York

NYC’s strength as a Wild Posting® market is that every neighborhood reaches a different audience. Picking the right zip code matters as much as the creative on the poster. Here’s where we recommend running, and who each neighborhood actually reaches.
James Harden Wild Posting® campaign at 601 Union Street, Brooklyn, New York — "BKLYN Is Different"
James Harden Wild Posting® campaign — 601 Union Street, Park Slope / Gowanus, Brooklyn. High-density barricade placement on a major Brooklyn pedestrian corridor near the Barclays Center and 4th Ave subway hub.

SoHo / Nolita

Trendy boutiques, cobblestone streets, and a constant rotation of fashion-led tourists and locals. Some of the most photographed barricade walls in NYC. Best for fashion, beauty, premium DTC, and brands chasing aspirational visibility.

Williamsburg, Brooklyn (Bedford Ave + N. 6th)

The cultural anchor of indie Brooklyn — streetwear, music, design, and a young, social-media-native crowd. Bedford Ave between N. 6th and Metropolitan is one of the most-walked corridors in the country. Natural home for streetwear, sneaker drops, music releases, and challenger fashion.

Lower East Side (LES)

Late-night culture, music venues, restaurants, and a dense 20-something residential base. Strong nighttime pedestrian flow that most NYC neighborhoods don’t match. Best for nightlife, alcohol and spirits, music, and edgy fashion.

East Village

Bohemian, eclectic, and music-venue-heavy. Reaches a younger, hipper audience that values authenticity over polish. Strong for indie music, craft beverage, challenger DTC, and brands looking for a downtown-cool halo.

Bushwick, Brooklyn

Street-art capital of NYC. Galleries, warehouse venues, and a dense creative-class resident base. Younger and more alternative than Williamsburg has become. Strong for art-forward, music, edgy fashion, and culture-driven brands.

Chelsea / Meatpacking District

Galleries, nightlife, luxury retail, and the High Line tourist corridor. A rare NYC neighborhood with both daytime and nighttime density. Ideal for luxury, fashion, hospitality, and beauty.

Greenpoint, Brooklyn

Quieter than Williamsburg, with a designer-creative resident base and a rising indie retail scene along Manhattan Ave and Franklin St. Strong for design-led DTC, lifestyle, craft food and beverage, and brands targeting an older creative-professional audience.

Times Square / Midtown

Maximum tourist density and constant pedestrian flow — the highest sheer-impression count of any NYC submarket. Good for entertainment, Broadway, streaming launches, and event-driven brands prioritizing reach over neighborhood fit.

How DASH TWO Runs Wild Posting® Campaigns in New York

NYC Wild Posting® isn’t a media buy — it’s an operations problem. Posters get covered, torn down, weathered, and competed for surface by surface, day by day. What separates a campaign that delivers from one that disappears is execution: knowing which surfaces stay up, which property owners are cooperative, which crews to use, and which posters to refresh mid-flight.
Here’s what running a NYC campaign with us looks like:

1. Audience-first site selection.

We start with who you want to reach, then map that to neighborhoods, then to specific surfaces. Not the other way around. A beauty brand and a streetwear brand running the same budget should be on different blocks.

2. Legal and permit handling.

Wild Posting® in New York operates across permitted construction barricades, scaffolding, and tolerated postering surfaces. We secure necessary permissions, work with property owners, and ensure posters comply with NYC Department of Buildings standards and city ordinances. You don’t see any of that — it just works.

3. Production-ready creative specs.

We send you exact dimensions, bleed, and material requirements before you design. No re-prints, no surprises.

4. Verified install with photo proof.

You get a deliverables report with sample photos of installed surfaces across the campaign — enough to verify placement and quality, and to show internally or send to a client. Not just an invoice.

5. Mid-flight refreshes when needed.

High-impact corners get covered fast. For campaigns that need to stay visible, we refresh weekly so your brand is the one people see, not the one underneath.

6. Reach and impression modeling.

NYC pedestrian density varies dramatically by corridor — SoHo, Bedford Ave, and Times Square aren’t comparable to most NYC streets. We model expected impressions per surface based on neighborhood, time of year, and campaign length — so you know what you’re paying for before you commit.

Examples of Wild Posting® Campaigns We've Run in New York

Sol de Janeiro — Manhattan Launch

DASH TWO ran Wild Posting® for Sol de Janeiro across Manhattan’s highest-impact corridors — including SoHo, the Lower East Side, and Meatpacking — generating approximately 97 million impressions in the NYC market alone (177 million combined when the campaign expanded to LA). The placement strategy concentrated surfaces near Sephora stores to catch Sol de Janeiro’s young, beauty-led audience at the point of purchase intent.

Compass Box Whiskey — "Long Live Interesting" (NYC)

DASH TWO installed Compass Box Whiskey’s “Long Live Interesting” Wild Posting® campaign across NYC’s most walkable cultural corridors. The deadpan creative — anchored by lines like “Living, yes. Dining, yes. Blah, nope.” — caught pedestrians by surprise on block-level barricade wraps in SoHo, the Lower East Side, and the East Village, putting the brand’s irreverent voice in front of NYC’s most culturally curious drinkers.

Civic Voting Campaign — Uptown Manhattan

DASH TWO installed a civic-engagement Wild Posting® barricade takeover across Uptown Manhattan, targeting Harlem’s dense pedestrian corridors along 125th Street, Lenox Ave, and Frederick Douglass Blvd. The placement put a get-out-the-vote message in front of one of the most politically active resident bases in the city, with surfaces refreshed weekly through the run-up to election day to keep visibility consistent.
