Valet at the Venue

Some of the best things about summer in the city (besides the extreme heat of course) are bikes and outdoor music. It seems you can’t turn a corner without running into either. And this summer, the City Parks Foundation and Transportation Alternatives are teaming up to provide a complimentary experience combining the best of both these worlds.
As part of its 25th anniversary, Summer Stage has branched out from its home base in Central Park, with over 100 events at venues across the city, in all five boroughs. For a full line up, visit the Summer Stage site. 
The events to be held at the East River Park venue will offer free bike valet parking, as the foundation has partnered with the wonderful folks over at Transportation Alternatives. The idea behind the collaboration is to “give greater access to cyclists…and to provide an incentive to utilize alternative means of transportation, and promote the use of green spaces in the Lower East Side.”
The service begins at the event on Tuesday, August 4th and will continue for the duration of the 13 days of free public programming at that venue. Roll on over and hand your bike off to the experts.
