New York, NY — September 24, 2026 — Intersection, the experience-driven out-of-home media and technology company and advertising & content partner for LinkNYC, today announced the newest expansion of its LinkNYC Creator Network. These six new creators bring their content to more than 4,000 LinkNYC screens across all five boroughs, reinforcing LinkNYC’s role as a real-world stage for the voices shaping New York City culture. The new roster helps capture the essence of New York City, from the food that fuels it to the art that reimagines its streets.
“This expansion highlights the power of bringing creator content off social feeds and onto city streets,” said Esther Raphael, Chief Marketing Officer at Intersection. “Over the past few years, the LinkNYC Creator Network has been industry-leading in bridging the gap between digital content and physical audiences. These new creators each capture a different piece of what makes this city remarkable, and together, they’re signaling where the creator economy is headed next.”
Representing the art world, Devon Rodriguez (@devonrodriguezart), known for sketching strangers on New York City subways and handing them finished portraits, joins the Network with more than 43 million followers across Instagram and TikTok, making him one of the most-followed visual artists on social media. His upcoming memoir, Work in Progress, will be released September 29, 2026.
“Every portrait I draw on the subway starts with a stranger and ends with a connection,” added Rodriguez. “LinkNYC is built on that same idea: it’s already standing where New Yorkers are, on their commute, on their corner. Having my work show up there, in the middle of the city that gave me the subway as my studio in the first place, feels like the most natural extension of what I’ve been doing since I started.”
In street style and fashion, Johnny Cirillo of Watching New York (@watchingnewyork) brings his street-style photography to the very sidewalks he’s spent nearly a decade documenting, reaching a combined audience of more than 2.4 million.
Highlighting a unique facet of NYC culture, Sara Leeds, creator of Doorman Stories (@doormanstories), brings her interview series that spotlights the doormen and building staff who anchor daily life across the city.
“Doorman Stories only works because of New York’s density. The fact that millions of us live stacked on top of each other, and the people who welcome us home every day usually go unnoticed,” said Leeds. “Getting that story off a phone screen and onto a LinkNYC kiosk, standing on the same sidewalks where those buildings and those doormen actually are, is a different kind of full circle than we could ever get on social alone.”
Also joining the network are Chaheti Bansal (@rootedinspice), Patience Ojionuka (@patienceojionuka), and Meet Cutes NYC (@meetcutesnyc), whose chronicle of New Yorkers’ real-life encounters has drawn a following of more than 3.3 million.
This expansion builds on Intersection’s earlier work bringing creators such as @haleyybaylee, @thetoast, @boywithnojob, @alexdwong, and @whatspoppin to the platform.
Intersection is the company behind LinkNYC, the world’s fastest free public Wi-Fi network and an integral piece of New York City’s urban infrastructure. Across nearly 4,000 screens in all five boroughs, LinkNYC reaches 91% of New Yorkers and visitors each month. Through its Creator Network, Intersection is expanding LinkNYC’s role from a platform for connectivity into a destination for the culture that makes New York City distinct.
