Streetsblog, it would be great to hear more about this. How many of PlaNYC's million trees are being planted in Bushwick? It looks like a neighborhood the city has forgotten.

All of the pledges of allegiance happy birthday wishes to the Brooklyn Bridge in its 125th year were truly inspirational. Here's hoping that the Tours de Queens and Bronx and the TA Century are just as powerful as this one was! Bravo to Clarence for a video as moving as the Tour de Brooklyn itself.
