Car Free Central Park
Posted by Glenn on October 23, 2005 - 5:04pm in The Oil Drum: Local
Central park was originally founded as a place for New Yorkers to find a quiet relaxing place far from the hussle and bussle of the rest of the city. Today, the Central Park loop is instead a place where cars dominate, with bikers, joggers and in-line skaters are pushed to the side. Not only is this an insult to the idea of open spaces for recreation and relaxation, but it's downright dangerous.
Tomorrow there is a rally to support making Central Park car-free for at the least Summer next year.
Please come out and support a car free central park tomorrow.
