All about mounted signalmen, the Elevated Line, and NYC’s continual cycles of urban decadence and “renewal,” The Death Avenue Posse peels up layers of modernity to show that the past is never past and explores what it might mean to prioritize the safety and belonging of all New Yorkers.

The Death Avenue Posse was produced in collaboration with The High Line for West Side Fest, and made possible in part by an Emergency Grant from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts.
