For our latest mission, we created separate walking lanes for tourists and New Yorkers on a Fifth Avenue sidewalk. Department of Transportation "employees" were on hand to enforce the new rules and ask pedestrians for their feedback on the initiative.

    This totally needs to happen. Someplace for the tourists to look at huge maps and dawdle without standing right in front of fifty New Yorkers who need to get to work. Now if we can just get tourists to understand the Subway doors *will* close *on* people and therefore everyone needs to get in the subway car quickly, that would be awesome.
