New York City’s Summer Streets program came to a close Saturday with one final day of car-free streets, outdoor activities and entertainment in Brooklyn and the Bronx.<\/p>\n

The final events of the season ran from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., giving New Yorkers more space to walk, bike, run and enjoy activities along major stretches of Eastern Parkway and the Grand Concourse.<\/p>\n

In Brooklyn, Summer Streets will take over Eastern Parkway from Grand Army Plaza to Buffalo Avenue, connecting Prospect Heights and Brownsville along the same route used for the annual Caribbean Day Parade.<\/p>\n

In the Bronx, the event will run along the Grand Concourse from East Tremont Avenue to Mosholu Parkway, creating a major car-free corridor through the borough.<\/p>\n

The streets will be opened to pedestrians and cyclists, with space for family activities, outdoor fitness, art and music.<\/p>\n

This year’s Summer Streets events have opened more than 20 miles of streets across all five boroughs to walking, biking, running and other community activities.<\/p>\n

The program also features public art, including “Big Spinning Wheels” by Josh Cohen, a series of kinetic sculptures displayed in Brooklyn, the Bronx and other boroughs.<\/p>\n

Saturday marks the final Summer Streets event of the 2026 season.<\/p>\n

WABC-TV is the official media sponsor of Summer Streets.<\/p>\n
