If you’re looking for an uncommon and unique item with which to remember your visit to New York City, but are sick of the souvenir and run-of-the-mill gift shops, look no more. Give your tush a rest on this cushionless "road tested chair". The chair is made out of New York City "Walk/Don’t Walk" signs that actually work, and a remote control is included to turn them on/off. And for $3700, they better include the remote control!

"The chair can come complete with all the genuine scuffs and stains of its New York City roots or can come "squeaky clean" with a fresh coat of paint. The seating surfaces have been reglazed with one inch-thick polished resin, cushioned with felt suspension. The chair plugs into a standard 115V AC outlet, and the standard bulbs (included) are replaceable. Handmade in New York City."

We hope that these signs weren’t vandalized off of the sidewalk. But what better way to remember NYC then by taking a signature piece home with you? - Natalie Mayslich
