In honor of the influential artist and creator Jack Kirby, the intersection of Delancey and Essex in New York City has been officially renamed Yancy Street/Jack Kirby Way.
In partnership with the City of New York, Marvel has installed a commemorative sign that pays tribute to the inspiration that Delancey and its neighboring area provided to Jack Kirby, who was born Jacob Kurtzberg on August 28, 1917.
Jack Kirby, a celebrated artist and prolific storyteller, is recognized for creating some of the most iconic characters in the world, including Captain America, Iron Man, Ant-Man, the Hulk, and The Fantastic Four.
