Fiberglass News Racks in Manhattan
Fiberglass news racks are becoming part of the street view in Manhattan. The Madison Avenue Business Improvement District ordered fiberglass racks 74″ wide, 40″ tall and 24″ deep. This award winning design by Karim Rashid, industrial designer known for his innovative and elegant concepts, adds a touch of elegance to New York`s streets.
These new fiberglass newsracks mean that the structural steel framework, normally required for street-side mounting, can be removed. Clutter along the sidewalk will be reduced and replaced by multiple, existing newspaper and magazine racks. Thanks to the fiberglass composite material these racks have a contemporary, elegant, yet functional design.
