Reconnecting Grand Army Plaza (Streetsblog)

Head on over to the NYC Streets Renaissance blog for a mostly balanced discussion of GAPCO’s Grand Army plaza reconfiguration plans. I, for one, love the plan. The circle at GAP is a swirling vortex of metal that few pedestrians and cyclists dare enter. Dividing traffic into two directions going up each side of the plaza seems like the most sensible way to reduce the vehicular danger in the area and open up access to the fountain.
