In a stark contrast to the last post I made about NYC where one of New York's finest blindsided some kid on a bike and the rise in bike use, this past weekend was the culmination of New York City's closing of Park Avenue from the Brooklyn Bridge all the way to Central Park.
This piece reminded me of a story I found some years ago about New York's High Line, which is an old railroad bed that is elevated above the city streets. It has sat dormant for years and is now in the process of being rezoned while new designs for the structure are finalized.as an elevated walkway park system to tour Manhattan's lower west side.
Placing the din of boisterous cities underneath the laughter of children and freewheeling bikes will be a nice step in quality of life for the residents of NYC, I hope to see it happen.
