Weekend Walks 2011: Montague Street, Brooklyn

Montague Street, Brooklyn

 

Weekend Walks is an application-based, temporary pedestrian-street program that DOT developed in 2008 as an alternative to the standard street fair. Local merchants' associations, community groups, and business improvement districts in all five boroughs host Weekend Walks from May through October. The events highlight local businesses and cultural institutions, foster a sense of community, help participants see their streets and neighborhoods in a new way, and promote healthy and safe recreation. Each event features activities ranging from music performances to arts and crafts, classes, and youth programming. There were 17 Weekend Walks sites in 2011 in all five boroughs.
