SoHo's Thompson Street Sign Redesigned To Mark End Of Trump Term

SOHO, NY — Donald Trump is no longer president of the United States, and a New York artist hit that fact home Wednesday with the help of a street sign in SoHo.

Artist Adrian Wilson remade Lower Manhattan's Thompson Street sign to read "Trumps gone St," referencing the now-former-president Trump.

Thompson Street stretches through Greenwich Village and SoHo in Lower Manhattan, but the specific sign is at the intersection of Thompson Street and Spring Street.

"This is what New Yorkers do," Wilson told Patch. "We go through all of this, whether it's 911 or the crash, and there's always somebody that can make you smile."

In terms of any legal trouble he might get in for the action, he's counting on the new president to have his back.

"If I get arrested, it's after one o clock now, so I'll go for Biden's first pardon," Wilson added.

Continuing with the Inauguration Day theme, Wilson also added the name "Joe" to the M and R tiled wall of the Astoria 46th Street Station in Queens. Biden was sworn in Wednesday as the 46th president of the United States.

The 46th Street station was previously redecorated after the presidential election in November, when the name "Biden" was put up on its tiled wall.

It isn't the first time Wilson has given makeovers to train station signs in tribute to legends dying.

He was also behind changing the 50th Street C/E train station in Manhattan to "Ruth Street" in honor of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the Bryant Park station in Manhattan to "Kobe-Bryant Park," according to Gothamist.
