For Immediate Release – January 15, 2016
In Wednesday’s $1.58 billion record-breaking Powerball jackpot, Lottery players in New York City won millions of dollars with 47 winning tickets ranging from $50,000 to $1 million.
The largest winning tickets were three $1 million Powerball second prizes sold in Queens at:
- Good Lucky Charm Gift Shop at 6050 Myrtle Avenue in Ridgewood
- PKG Enterprises at 118-17 Liberty Avenue in South Richmond Hill
- Plaza South Convenience at 25-08A Queens Plaza South in Long Island City
In addition, a $100,000 ticket was sold at D&C Mini Market at 187-07 Linden Boulevard in Saint Albans, Queens County.
Other winning tickets worth $50,000 each were sold at 43 other retail locations in the five boroughs. (See enclosed retail location listing below).
“While no one hit the jackpot prize, New Yorkers are vastly richer thanks to Wednesday’s historic Powerball drawing,” said Gardner Gurney, Director of the Division of the Lottery. “From Montauk Point to Niagara Falls and from Plattsburgh to Jamestown, two million prizes totaling over $18.8 million dollars were won in New York.”
The Lottery encourages everyone who buys a New York Lottery draw game ticket to check their tickets again, as they could be holding a winner. Tickets expire one year after the game’s drawing.
The winners may claim the tickets at any one of the Lottery’s Customer Service Centers statewide, including the Manhattan office at 15 Beaver Street, New York, NY 10004 or at Resorts World Casino New York City, 110-00 Rockaway Blvd., Jamaica, NY 11420.

This history-making Powerball jackpot skyrocketed sales statewide to $258.9 million for drawings leading up to and including Wednesday’s record jackpot drawing. Since this Powerball jackpot began on November 7, New Yorkers buying Powerball tickets have contributed more than $90.63 million in aid to education.
Powerball is played in 44 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Prior to this jackpot, the largest Powerball jackpot was $590.5 million won in Florida in May 2013.

About the New York Lottery
The New York Lottery continues to be North America’s largest and most profitable Lottery, contributing $3.11 billion in fiscal year 2014-2015 to help support education in New York State. The Lottery’s contribution represents 14 percent of total state education aid to local school districts.
New York Lottery revenue is distributed to local school districts by the same statutory formula used to distribute other state aid to education. It takes into account both a school district’s size and its income level; larger, lower-income school districts receive proportionately larger shares of Lottery school funding.
