For what it’s worth, 160 is a record, but it’s not that far outside the norm. In 2024, corrupt piece of shit Eric Adams announced 147 car-free streets. In 2025, same administration, it was 148. The Trick-or-Streets program has been running for only five years now, so it’s understandable it’d still be ramping up in scale.
NYC mayor’s office press releases like these from every administration are puff pieces intended to be read uncritically (if at all), but I’m glad the trend is going upward.

Thanks for the context.
