BTW, in Episode 9 of Only Murders in the Building (Only Murders in the Building 🕵️‍♀️🕵️‍♂️🕵️‍♂️), they would have us believe that Broadway between 35th and 36th is a wide, two lane street with plenty of car traffic. Listen. You cannot misrepresent street design on Broadway and fool the BLiP. Not possible.

We are doing a Jane’s Walk about Broadway, on Saturday, May 4th, led by our own Damu Radheshwar and Katherine Nessel! Join us and learn about Broadway, its design successes and challenges, and our vision for it. Details here: mas.org/events/blip-br…

Great piece on the problems with Columbus Circle and 57th St, which I think we all know but rarely see discussed. And this is an insightful, thorough write up of problems and solutions, which complements our vision for the start of the Broadway Linear Park.

This is south of our proposal but everyone has such a visceral feeling this week on what a difference it would make to have the cooling shade of trees. Let’s transform Broadway!

Broadway between 17th and 18th is becoming a plaza! The birth of a new plaza on Broadway is always welcome, so thank you DOT! Now we just need all the other blocks up to Columbus Circle to do the same, and NYC can have a street that will live up to its fame.

Next Saturday at noon, join us for a very different kind of bike ride. It’s a free musical experience with sound, song, and some performances on bike and off! See DOT’s improvements on Broadway and envision how good it can be without cars RSVP here: mobilize.us/transalt/event…

This is today! It’s a beautiful day and we already have a crowd joining us for this event. Let’s enjoy Broadway the way it was meant to be, a place not for traffic but for the community! See you there

It was great to rally today with advocates in support of the Broadway open street pilot (35th to 36th St)! We're pushing for a Christmas gift for midtown, to make this program permanent and continue transforming NYC's streets! 🎅🏻 #OpenStreets #NYC
