New York City's latest list of Open Streets, a program now in its seventh year, includes more than 15 car-free blocks in Upper Manhattan.


The Open Streets are the result of partnerships between the Department of Transportation and community organizations (such as block associations), educational institutions and merchant groups that apply each year to manage their locations.
