ABOUT SUMMER STREETS

"The New York City Department of Transportation’s initiative, Summer Streets, is the largest participatory event in the United States.

“With miles of NYC streets closed to vehicular traffic for people to play, run, walk, and bike, Summer Streets provides space for healthy recreation and encourages New Yorkers to use more sustainable forms of transportation."
