Open Streets on FDB

For the fourth year in a row, the Frederick Douglass Boulevard Alliance (FDBA) will be sponsoring Open Streets on Frederick Douglass Boulevard (FDB), which will be held along the corridor on Saturdays and Sundays, from June 15th to October 6th, between 112th and 121st streets. Hours of operations are 12:00pm-9:00pm.

Established by the New York City Mayor’s Office and operated by the NYC Department of Transportation, the Open Streets program transforms streets into public space open to all. These transformations allow for a range of activities that promote ways for New Yorkers to enjoy cultural programming and build community.

In addition to outdoor dining, FDBA has added events and activities to our open streets programming which include:  live music, roller skating, silent disco, a Halloween pumpkin patch, kids corner, circus, outdoor movie screenings and open mic performances. 

For 2024, FDBA has planned a robust schedule of events and activities for residents, kids and families. For information about events for Open Streets on FDB 2024, please follow us on Facebook:  Frederick Douglass Boulevard Alliance and Instagram: @fdballiance.
