You can now visit the iconic ‘Seinfeld’ set in New York, by dreadnatty on Jun 24, 2015 0:56:55 GMT 1, You can now visit the iconic ‘Seinfeld’ set in New York

They’re real, and they’re spectacular.

Iconic items from the set of “Seinfeld” — as well as a re-creation of Jerry Seinfeld’s Upper West Side pad from the show — are going on display to the public starting Wednesday to celebrate all episodes of the series launching on Hulu.

Housed at Milk Studios on West 14th Street, “Seinfeld: The Apartment” is modeled after the NBC comedy’s Season 8 set and includes specific details, from the cereal boxes on the shelf to the bike hanging on the wall and Jerry’s ’90s-era computer in the corner.

Promotions agency the Magnetic Collaborative built the 3,500-square-foot pop-up installation in six weeks, constructing the apartment replica based on episode screen grabs, photos from the show’s set designer and consulting with Seinfeld’s reps. (None of the “Seinfeld” cast members is involved with the exhibit.)

Guests will even be able to touch and interact with the re-created set — including making their own Kramer-style entrances into the apartment.

The original canvas brick wall that cast members, network executives and guest stars — like Bryan Cranston, Kathy Griffin and Jerry Stiller — signed at the finale taping is also part of the space.

In addition to the apartment, a memorabilia gallery displays items from the actual set like David Puddy’s (Patrick Warburton) New Jersey Devils hockey jersey, the diner table and booth from Tom’s Restaurant, a happy-face oven mitt from “The Puffy Shirt” episode, the Bachman pretzel container and the Superman figurine on display in Jerry’s living room — with adjacent screens playing the corresponding episode.

Other memorable props — the Festivus Pole, the movie-theater seats and PEZ dispenser, and the Frogger machine — have been re-created for the gallery, since many of the original items were taken as souvenirs by cast members, thrown out or are on loan to other “Seinfeld” rights holders.

“I don’t have anything, not even a piece of my own stuff,” says Thomas, who notes the Soup Nazi chef’s coat was lost over the years. “I don’t think anybody knows where the ladle is, either. All I have is my original script from table read. That’s kind of an accident — just a matter of not cleaning out my backpack long enough to realize ‘Don’t throw this away,’ so when I went back for the finale, I got everybody to sign it. It’s one of my favorite things.”

“Seinfeld: The Apartment” is free and open to the public from Wednesday to June 28, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.
