On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, join us for outdoor seating at East 101st and Lex so you can get takeout from local spots, or bring snacks from home.

Nearby restaurants include Lexington Pizza Parlour, Burritos y Mas, Au Jus Oklahoma BBQ, Joy Burger Bar, Chu Ros Thai, Pro Thai, Mojo Desserts, MY NY Cafe, Frenchy Coffee, El Tepeyac, Naughty Crab and Lloyd's Carrot Cake.

There are also raffles from the businesses, plus sidewalk chalk, board games and cornhole, and splashing in the Cool Streets open hydrants (until the temps start to drop). Throughout October, we're partnering with the International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival to show film shorts on Saturday nights at 7 p.m.

Wear your mask, and be kind to the neighbors! Social distancing staff are always in place, provided by Positive Workforce.

Special thanks to Building Healthy Communities, Community Board 11, Union Settlement Business Development Center, Brightview and Civitas for their support.
