History
In their first two years of operations, D3 landed projects in and around Times Square, including the ABC Studios Supersign, two M&M's World displays, the Army Recruiting Station display, Ripley's Believe It Or Not, and the Walgreens display on the One Times Square building, which is the tallest LED display in Times Square. D3 went international and stepped into the sports scoreboard/industry at the same time with the launch of their Baseball Stadium and Basketball Arena displays for Cibao in Santiago, Dominican Republic in 2007 and early 2008. Additional large-scale projects in the New York Metro area include Disney Store Times Square, Aéropostale flagship store Times Square, UNIQLO flagship stores in New York City at W. 34th St. and W. 53rd St., New Amsterdam Theatre, Hard Rock Cafe, Quicksilver Times Square, Forever 21 Times Square, and the Apollo Theatre in Harlem.
