Creating a New Legacy for a Great City
May 21, 2009
Posted by: Carol
I love everything about this story in New York Magazine on Janette Sadik-Khan, New York City's Transportation commissioner, who is transforming big chunks of Broadway into pedestrian spaces. Borrowing ideas from Copenhagen and cities around the world, Sadik-Khan has a vision of turning the great diagonal into a linear park.
My favorite quote from Sadik-Khan: "Biking is the new golf." It's about time.
