NY Mets

Overview

12 battery-powered LED totem units, positioned at key decision points across the Citi Field exterior. Each carries two facade displays with location-specific graphics covering ingress and egress, rideshare, subway, LIRR, ferry, shuttle, and parking. A pilot-first approach validated placement, content, and maintenance workflows before full deployment.

Approach:

• Designed and fabricated a dual-face totem system requiring no permanent infrastructure or electrical connection
• Developed location-specific content for 12 positions, with ingress and egress logic handled separately on each unit face
• Collaborated with the Mets transportation team across the full range of arrival modes — car, transit, rideshare, bus, and ferry — and the event types that shift those patterns, from baseball to concerts
• Managed pilot deployment and operational handoff, including staff maintenance documentation

Designing for Game Day

No two events move the same way. A baseball crowd and a concert crowd arrive differently, depart differently, and stress different parts of the perimeter. Noble worked with the Mets transportation team to map the full range of fan personas — subway riders, rideshare users, drivers, bus and ferry passengers — and built content around where each audience actually is and what they need at that moment. Freestanding and battery-powered, the units can be repositioned as the site evolves.

Built to Evolve

Metropolitan Park is a multi-year transformation. The NYCFC stadium next door is already under construction. Traffic patterns, fan journeys, and the perimeter itself will keep changing. The hardware was designed for it — the existing frame is ready for e-ink displays, remote CMS, QR-based analytics, and solar power when the program calls for them. Noble continues to support the Mets as the wayfinding program develops.
