All over NYC today parking spaces will be transformed into mini parks as part of a nationwide effort by The Trust for Public Land to give our cities back to the people who live in them.

Our sidewalks are packed: a 250 square foot parking space can hold about 45 standing people, 20 bikes, one tree and bench, or an SUV.

Host of BIFOLD: GRN, Colin Beaven (The No Impact Man), is camping out in front of the Whole Foods on 7th and 24th.

Check out videos of last year’s Park(ing) Day in San Francisco and Park Slope.
