Streetfilms gives a neat look at the Sunday Parkways program in Chicago, in which about three miles of the city’s parkways were closed to car traffic on four Sundays in October, including through parks. The route cut through neighborhoods lacking park space, and essentially turned the city’s wide boulevards into large linear parks. The video shows a lot of people out enjoying the space and Chicago’s parks, with one interviewee saying this “is the greatest thing since sliced bread, except you can burn it off, too.”
