New Yorkers can once again expect to see miles of the city periodically closed to cars this summer, now spanning all five boroughs.
Make your contribution now and help Gothamist thrive in 2023. The expandedprogram, which Mayor Eric Adams called a “bold new vision for public space across the city” during a press conference on Monday, will begin on July 29 in Queens and Staten Island, and then extend to the remaining boroughs in August.
“When we open our streets, we open up the opportunity to enjoy everything this city can offer,” DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez said. “The streets belong to you, and to all New Yorkers – and everyone is invited.” Not everyone is on board with the program. In past years, people have complained about increased traffic and congestion while streets are shut down. The program calls for closing down parts of Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn and Grand Concourse in the Bronx, which are major hubs for transportation.
