Streetopia brings a new generation of ideas to the Upper West Side of Manhattan
Even though most New Yorkers do not own a car, the vast majority of the open space in New York City is filled with parked cars and congested traffic. This use of public space does not reflect our values as a community and degrades quality of life for the majority for the sake of the minority who drive. Streetopia will redefine streets from a place for cars and trucks to a place for people and public life, highlighting the importance of places that allow relationships to grow, interactions to occur, and healthy outcomes to flourish.
