Summer Streets August 8 Manhattan route
Summer Streets Is Giving Manhattan Back to Walkers
The August 8 Summer Streets route will run from the Brooklyn Bridge through Broadway to Dyckman Street, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. I like that the program treats car-free space as more than a backdrop for exercise: the schedule includes public art, the NYRR Start Line Series, and Art Stop Letters by Amanda Lobos and Grace Park. The event map is the useful part for planning a long walk, especially with subway access and neighborhood stops in mind.
