Since ballot boxes are on our minds today, we thou Since ballot boxes are on our minds today, we thought we'd reminisce about another important box... The Gotham Box! Gotham boxes once painted the streets of NYC (and got a fair amount of screen time!).

Let us know! Oh, and try to get out and vote today if you can. #writinginspiration #writing #writerscommunity #nyc #manhattan #nycfilm #writingsociety
