For the third year in a row NYC is hosting the ‘Summer Streets‘ event.  Break out your bicycle and bring out your inner Lance Armstrong, dance your way down Park Avenue or perfect your backstroke at Grand Central .

From 7am to 1pm the streets of the Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park and Park Avenue will be closed to traffic and open to pedestrians.  What’s really cool for this year’s event is there will be swimming pools! Three clean unused shipping containers are being turned into swimming pools and will be located near Grand Central and open to the public.

Summer Streets; Play, Walk, Run, Bike
