It's PARK(ing) Day from the Rebar group! They set up a veritable oasis at a West 30th Street and Eighth Avenue parking spot. Our friend at Transportation Alternative sent us this picture - note the high production value: Bench, trees, and three people! We're not sure if the space is still there (we heard it would be up until noon or 2PM), so if you work near there, swing by and let us know.

More: In January, Rebar did the parking squat thing in San Francisco; Transportation Alternatives did one in October 2005; and Streetsblog has some more insights.
