 Production of the "Neighborhood" ended in December 2000, and the last original episode aired in 2001, but PBS continued to air reruns; by 2016 it was the third-longest running program in PBS history.Many of the sets and props in "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood", like the trolley, the sneakers, and the castle, were created for Rogers' show in Toronto by CBC designers and producers.The program also "incorporated most of the highly imaginative elements that later became famous", such as its slow pace and its host's quiet manner.
