this is a scan from the NY Times ...

and this is one of mine, its more 'up close and personal'.

Just what this is I am still not sure ..  but its being called a pedestrian  - what? - mall? It runs from 42nd/Times Square down to the 30s I believe ending at Herald Square.  I am not sure I would feel relaxed sitting in the middle of traffic ... oh the green aisle with arrows?  It's for bicycles ... ahh ha.
