Talk:Summer Streets returns with uninterrupted car-free stretch across Manhattan

Original reporting notes

I ran along the Broadway part of Summer Streets this afternoon in upper Manhattan to check out what was there. A good number of people, actually! I briefly spoke with DoT Director of Summer Streets Kenny Placencio, who was at the 175th St. "rest stop" with some other DoT folks. I don't know how many people actually attended—I would say tens of thousands, but maybe the DoT will say a few hundred thousand people came. There were certainly a few hundred thousand cones, if how the cones were spaced up here in northern Manhattan was consistent the whole way south.

Besides that, there were scheduled activities that ran, listed on the Summer Streets website. It seemed mostly accurate, but the Department of Corrections wasn't there on Dyckman St. so I dunno how it all panned out overall. A great day to have it, though. They couldn't have picked a better day in August! SWinxy (talk) 02:17, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
