This Week: Union Square, Nostrand SBS, Weekend Walks

Here's what's happening this week in addition to this evening's bike lane event in Brooklyn.

    • Tonight: The transportation committee of Manhattan Community Board 5 will hear from DOT about the 34thStreet Transitway and the Union Square pedestrian plan, which could come up for a vote. 6 p.m.
    • Tuesday: DOT will give a presentation to Brooklyn CB 9 about Nostrand Avenue Select Bus Service. It doesn't appear there will be a vote of any kind, but a few friendly faces in the crowd wouldn't hurt. (Lest we forget last month's CB 15 briefing.) 7 p.m.
    • Wednesday: The Brooklyn Greenway Initiative hosts a cocktail party benefit. 6 p.m.
    • Thursday: "Our Cities, Ourselves" opens atthe Center for Architecture.
