open streets

The move will mark the biggest school expansion to date of the pandemic era program.

The open streets event expanded to all five boroughs in 2023 and now has extended hours.

For three Sunday afternoons in December, you'll be able to walk in the middle of the road from 48th to 59th streets.

The popular seasonal program is expanding this year to all five boroughs, offering car-free space for pedestrians, runners and bicyclists.

The Department of Transportation announced more than 25 additional stretches of pavement will be added to the Open Streets program, so that residents can enjoy outdoor space.

Restaurants and bars in several neighborhoods participating in New York City’s Open Streets program rebounded at more dramatic rates than others during the first year-and-a-half of the coronavirus pandemic, according to a new report.

100 streets will be car-free on Saturday, April 23rd, which will kick-off 2022's Open Streets program.

There will be five presentations on outdoor dining designs, guidelines, process and goals at Borough Boards and two virtual roundtable discussions, and all will be open to the public.

This week, the City Planning Commission voted unanimously for a zoning text amendment which will create a clean slate for the city to develop and regulate a permanent outdoor dining program.

"The moral of the story is we know Open Streets work, but they need to work in many more areas."
