10 Things New Yorkers Need to Stop Doing Immediately
Here are 10 things that we really need to stop doing. There are so many others that should have made this list, but this is a good start. Maybe this should be included in a “Welcome to New York” packet and given to every tourist and/or newbie.
Plan Ahead: Bring To Light
Bring to Light is a free nighttime public festival of art in New York City that takes place simultaneously with “nuit blanche” events in cities around the world. Inviting emerging and established artists to make site-specific installations of light, sound, performance and projection art, the event creates an immersive spectacle for thousands of visitors to re-imagine public space and civic life. Bring to Light will transform streets, parks and the industrial waterfront of Greenpoint, Brooklyn set against dramatic views of the Manhattan skyline.

The section between Eighth and Broadway is signed Señor Wences Way for the ventriloquist who had appeared on the nearby Ed Sullivan Show and who lived in the Ameritania Hotel.
Summer Streets 2011!
This summer, for the fourth year in a row, Summer Streets will temporarily close Park Avenue and connecting streets from the Brooklyn Bridge to Central Park to motor vehicles and open it up to people on three consecutive Saturdays in August (August 6, 13, & 20).
3-Way Street
A School of Visual Arts thesis project by Ron Gabriel, named ‘3-Way Street’ tracks a camera at the Manhattan intersection of 28th Street and Park Avenue. As the artist puts it on his website, the point of the study is to show the “interconnected role in improving the safety and usability of our streets.” Mission very much accomplished.
Eat bad pizza but trick yourself into believing it’s good because it’s made in New York. Do the same thing with bagels and sex.
