How do you keep the POLIZEI from cracking open yer heads and hauling you off to the fine farm?!!!?? I'd feed a meter every day for a nice place to unfold a lounger and do some reading... but I don't have health insurance!!! (or bail money) I can't afford to even ride across bridges in this town...

Now this is UnReasonable! I love it. I wonder if your fed the meter for a year if they would let you take two lanes?

Keep greening our City.

A beautiful video of this wonderful initiative, and I very much hope a prelude to vision42 - a landscaped, auto-free light rail boulevard on 42nd Street.

I wonder how many of those people who thought this was a wonderful idea actually owned a car. I bet a lot of them, especially the ones out in Brooklyn.

It's a great idea, and yeah, parking spaces do need to be priced higher.

[...] Streetfilms has a great piece that shows most of the locations; if I hadn’t been hanging out in the grass at Cortelyou Rd. Park my first choice would have been to spend the day with the Lower East Side Girls’ Club, sipping on one of their bicycle blender smoothies! [...]

PARK(ing) Day was so much fun - I wish I could have visited more sites!

Thanks to LES Girls Club for awesome smoothies, BirdBath Bakery and Time's Up for yummy lemonade and treats, TPL for the grass (shout out to the people I worked with at MoMA and Times Sq.), XDesign of NYU and Prof. Natalie for a bit of micro-scale ecology, Lindsey at TA for coordinating everything.... and of course, Clarence for putting it all on video!

Great work, all!

Clarence, the work of streetfilms and streetsblog does help contribute to a changing attitude and perception, and will indeed help change nyc. Park(ing) day happened up here in Northampton, MA, and here is some video of the event, along with all the links I could find to actions across the nation.
