This Week: Bed-Stuy Gets a Look at Bike-Share

11:34 AM EST on December 12, 2011

The livable streets calendar is starting to quiet down for the holiday season, but there's no holding back the city's extensive public outreach for the roll-out of a public bike-share system. This week, the transportation of Brooklyn Community Board 3 in Bed-Stuy gets a look at the how bike-share would work.

    • Tonight: Subway historian Joe Cunningham gives a lecture on the early history of the elevated railroad, focusing on an 1868 line that ran down Greenwich Street in the West Village. 6:30 p.m.
    • Also tonight: The New York Cycle Club celebrates 75 years of recreational riding with a holiday party. Dinner and dancing for $25. 6:30 p.m.
    • Tuesday: DOT takes its bike-share presentation to Brooklyn Community Board 3's transportation committee, laying out how the system will work in Bed-Stuy. 6:30 p.m.

Keep an eye on the calendar for updated listings. Got an event we should know about? Drop us a line.
