Central Park car free

Submitted by LWintner on Fri, 04/20/2018 - 1:04pm

I just received the following announcement from Helen Rosenthal, City Council member:

...I am beyond thrilled to announce that in advance of Earth Day this year, Central Park will become permanently car-free. Starting June 27th, the day after public schools close for the summer recess, the park’s loop drive will be entirely and permanently closed to cars. This is a victory for every New Yorker and our environment.
