As a .nyc domain owner, DockStreet.nyc was approached to be one of the faces of the new top-level domain’s marketing campaign. It’s pretty exciting, as our website will be promoted across New York City as a featured .nyc destination on the web.

What is .nyc?

In June of 2012, ICANN (the organization responsible for determining which top-level domains are available) decided to expand upon the offering of top-level domains, beyond the standard .com, .net, .org, etc. One of the new domains proposed was .nyc, a top-level domain exclusive to people and businesses located in New York City. The proposed TLD was approved, and made available in October of 2014.

You can purchase your own .nyc domain at ownit.nyc
