Sesame Street (fictional location)

Characters from the show joined the mayor of New York City, Bill de Blasio, for the unveiling.

The featured building and bridge in the background are composites and are to represent a broader variety of American cities.

[2] The building is meant to appear typical of New York neighborhood brownstones, being described as a "survivor of gentrification" by DiNapoli.

[6] Oscar the Grouch's trash can is his home, and sits in front of a fence made of salvaged doors.

In the episode Sesame Street Visits the Firehouse, Gordon mentions that Oscar's trash can has "Two elephants, a puppy, a rhino, a goat, and a worm."

In Season 46, as part of a set redesign, the trash can is moved to a dumpster unit of the front of 123 Sesame Street.

It is now part of a recycling center with a compost bin and Oscar can appear at different locations throughout the street.

In the late 1990s, the characters decided that the neighborhood needed more green space and built a community garden in a vacant lot behind the Arbor.

The Sloppy Jalopy is the name of the car Oscar uses for his taxi service, which was first introduced on the show in episode 1252.

In 1989, David moved away to live with his grandmother and left the store in the hands of a retired firefighter named Mr. Handford.

Linda worked as a librarian for several years in a different library that has, at different times, been located across the street from 123 as well as in another part of New York City.

The street's residents would bring their broken items to be fixed; toasters were the shop's specialty.

Residents of Sesame Street would use the Mail-It Shop to send and receive letters and packages.

As part of the rare views of the other side of Sesame Street, the Bicycle Shop is next to a CGI depiction of Manhattan where it shows a playground and the Triborough Bridge among the cityscape.

Caroll Spinney and Martin P. Robinson further commented that viewers had a hard time keeping up with all the new characters.
