The Week in Livable Streets Events
Big meetings this week for cyclists and transit riders.
Monday - Tonight, the Coburn School will feature a performance of Eine Brise ('A Breeze'), an avant-garde musical performance piece for 111 bicyclists that was written by Mauricio Kagel in 1996. The performance begins at 5:30 at 200 S. Grand and they're looking for bicyclists with bells to help out. For more information, click here.
Monday-Wednesday-Thursday-Friday - Tonight also marks the first of four meetings on the Gold Line Eastside Extension Phase II. They've narrowed the field to two options, plus a no-build and a busway improvement option. For more information, click here.
