Summer Streets 2008 (NYC)

The New York City Department of Transportation held its first Summer Streets event on Saturday, August 9, 2008, by opening 7 miles of city streets to pedestrians and bike traffic only. From 7 AM to 1 PM, roads were car-free from 72nd Street to the Brooklyn Bridge with Park Avenue serving as the backbone of the route.

Ralph,

Don't you know someone at the city that could turn the wheel for something like this. :) It would be awesome if this idea spread throughout the country and cities all dedicated day(s) to this at the same time. Great post.
