Oscar's Newsstand



A newsstand owned-and-operated by Oscar the Grouch was introduced to Sesame Street in the 25th season, as a part of the Around the Corner expansion. The stand was located next to the Subway Station. The newsstand was originally shown without a consistent owner, and episode 3242 introduces the development that Oscar buys the newsstand to spread his Grouchiess around the street. Along with the rest of the Around the Corner area, the newsstand was dropped following season 29.

Additionally, Hooper's Store functioned as a newsstand with a magazine and newspaper rack just outside the window. In season 46, a newsstand was added back to the street, located between the Subway entrance and the laundromat and maintained by the Two-Headed Monster.
