The length of the Park Avenue median was once a walkable, sinuous path. It made sense to call it Park Avenue. It was a beautiful way to walk the avenue: down the middle.

We should restore it and bring the idea to Broadway as well. Let's sacrifice a lane or two of traffic while we're at it. The sidewalks can be for cruising the ship windows, but the median should be reserved for leisurely strolls.
