Official Spider-Man Way Street Sign Unveiled in Queens
New York City officially co-names Ingram Street and Ascan Avenue as Spider-Man Way, honoring Peter Parker outside his comic home.
🕷️ Official Street Co-Naming
🕷️ A Marvel Landmark at Ingram & Ascan
On October 12, city officials and Marvel editors gathered in Forest Hills to dedicate Spider-Man Way, establishing a permanent street co-naming landmark honoring Peter Parker in residential Queens. Local comic enthusiasts and residents gathered beneath the newly unveiled green signs at the corner of Ingram Street and Ascan Avenue to celebrate the superhero’s deep neighborhood roots.
🏡 Comic Lore Outside 20 Ingram Street
The street sign sits just steps from 20 Ingram Street, the Tudor-style home featured in 1989 Marvel comic lore as Peter Parker’s canonical residence. Because the address is a private residence that must not be entered or disturbed, visitors should respect current homeowners by taking photos quietly from the public sidewalk and street corner.
🍕 Forest Hills Bites Nearby
After photographing the street sign, walk a few blocks into the central Forest Hills commercial corridor along Austin Street or Station Square. Head down Station Square to Forest Hills Pizzeria for casual slices in a cozy back den, or stop by Kyuramen on Queens Boulevard for warm ramen in private honeycomb booths.
