Columbus Avenue will be closed to traffic from 68th to 77th Street starting this Sunday from 10 a.m. until 9 p.m., and then every Sunday after that until at least November 14. The idea is to allow people to walk, bike and mingle in the street and for restaurants to be able to set up seating.
For the first couple of weeks, the Columbus Avenue Business Improvement District will concentrate on making sure the barriers stay up to keep cars from driving on the streets, and spreading the word about the open street. In some areas — like an Open Street on West End Avenue last year — vehicles have bypassed barriers and driven on streets that were supposed to be closed.
Eventually, the BID also plans to creating programming to bring the streets alive and engage more people.
For now, these restaurants will be adding seating, and more may do so in the weeks ahead:
Asset (329 Columbus Ave)
Kissaki (286 Columbus Ave)
Angaar (283 Columbus Ave)
Harvest Kitchen (269 Columbus Ave)
Ella (249 Columbus Ave)
Manny’s Bistro (225 Columbus Ave)
El Mitote (208 Columbus Ave)
Magnolia Bakery (200 Columbus Ave)
Francesco’s Pizza (186 Columbus Ave)
Il Volino (180 Columbus Ave)
