From Park Ave at 72nd St to Centre St at Brooklyn Bridge; visit nyc.gov/summerstreets for details. For this three-Saturday event, nearly seven miles of NYC turf from the Brooklyn Bridge all the way to Central Park will be cleared of vehicles, creating a pedestrian paradise complete with food and entertainment. This edition’s offerings are still being planned, but expect perks like free bike and rollerblade rentals, a rock-climbing wall, a zip line, and refreshing water sprinklers and misting stations. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for outdoor art installations, too. All ages.
We hope your summer has been full of adventures, family picnics at NYC parks and visits to the city's best playgrounds, but there are just a few (and by a few, we mean 18) other events you'll need to experience before breaking out your sweaters.
