NYC Community Media delivers just that - Communities where our customers live, work and play. DANA THAYER
Senior Vice President, Marketing Chelsea Piers
Our “Stand with Japan� event on Sunday went very well, so many people came out to show their support and to participate in the activities. We raised more than $20,000 in just 3 hours. Most of our guests were young families from this neighborhood and I believe the ad in the Downtown Express took our event to the next level. We could not have done this without your support. Thank you so much, AYAKO ALLEN
The Villager is a great avenue to build community support for our youth softball and baseball programs. The Villager staff is always looking for opportunities to take advantage of key dates in our GVLL calendar. We’ve enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship and look forward to many years to come.

Gay City News has been a fantastic addition to our media plan. Our properties, Dyker B each and Pelham Split Rock Golf Courses, are fabulous wedding locations. With Gay City News’s vast audience through print, online and e-mail, we have booked three gay weddings for the upcoming year. Thank you!

I am delighted to be advertising in Downtown Express. Your design team has made my job so much easier. Everything about the experience has been easy, helpful and straightforward. We are new to the neighborhood, so it’s hard to know where to advertise. Being a grassroots kind of gal, I took to the streets walking into every building in Battery Park City to introduce myself. There in the lobbies I saw several publications, Downtown Express being one of them Of course it’s hard to know what people are actually reading...so I asked. Again and again doormen told me that the paper they see their residents reading is Downtown Express. I am delighted to be a part of the neighborhood and also to have a wonderful resource to keep a finger to the pulse of what is happening downtown.
