Might there be a larger than usual Muppets merchandise display at the Times Square Disney Store? I thought I remembered someone having said that a while back, but it coulda been around the time that the movie was still in theatres, or just released on bluray/DVD. :confused:

In any case, I really hope you have a great time! :zany:
Yeah, they have some Muppet stuff there. Nothing that special, but still something.

The address to the building used for the Pete's Luncheonette exterior is
208 Varick Street. It is now a McDonald's Express.
Does it look the same inside? It doesn't fromm the outside....

Both the old Henson offices and workshop in NYC are no longer open. The old townhouse office building like someone here already said is being renovated and now owned by someone else. The old workshop on E. 67th and 3rd Ave. is also not around anymore. The most you'll see is concrete prints of Kermit's feet outside the door.

Are they renovating the Townhouse in a good way? Hopefully not a Tex Richman scheme... :smile: Do you know if they still have the Muppet mural and stained glass windows inside?

Yeah I definitely wouldn't pass up checking the Disney store in Times Square you might be able to find things that aren't in the smaller outlets anymore. The one where I live only has "Animal" coffee mugs which nothing against Animal but it sucked that their only down to coffee mugs! It's all BRAVE stuff right now. :/

And I definitely agree with what someone else said check out the bench dedicated to Jim in Central Park. Either way have a great time!
