Summer Streets returns on the first 3 Saturdays of the month

The annual Summer Streets celebration returns on the first three Saturdays of the month (August!).

Starting tomorrow (Saturday!), nearly seven miles of NYC roadways are closed to vehicles for people to run, walk, bike, complain that this takes away prime parking, etc. 

As in previous years, this car-free zone includes Lafayette, Astor Place and Fourth Avenue from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. 

You can find more details about Summer Streets at this link, including what kind of corporate-sponsored activities to expect at Astor Place.

  1. 'corporate-sponsored activities to expect at Astor Place"
    Thank you elected officials for turning our public street into a place with corporate advertising. Because relaxation, getting outdoors is alway better when someone is trying to sell us something we don't need.
