BULLETIN! SUMMER STREETS

People in colorful T-shirts walk and bike along Park Avenue in New York City, surrounded by buildings, approaching Grand Central Terminal.

OR…What to do in the City on 3 Saturday mornings in August!

 The annual car-free festival—which takes over seven miles of streets on the first three Saturdays in August—is returning this year, while the first one on August 3rd is over, there are two more to come on August 10th and 17th from 7 AM to 1 PM. Starting from lower Manhattan to the Upper East Side, with street closures beginning at the Brooklyn Bridge, going up Lafayette Street, and then along Park Avenue from Union Square to the Upper East Side. Check out the website that tells what goes on during Summer Streets describing the rest stops along the way with all kinds of activities….have fun! Remember it’s all over at 1 PM. Note: if you’re driving around the City on these dates be aware of the street closures.

I knew when I started my blog I wanted to reach out to seniors like myself. I wanted to share my stories and even be a bit of a tour guide on what I’ve learned and the fun I’ve had at famous and not so famous New York places.
