Giant Chess and Velcro People: First Look at All the Stuff Going on Along Sunday’s 10-Mile-Long CicLAvia – Get In the Street – Curbed LA

Los Angeles has something ELSE fun to do this weekend so if you don’t have plans for Sunday you should check out this super fun event.  WOW I hope you wear tennis shoes!

Giant Chess and Velcro People: First Look at All the Stuff Going on Along Sunday’s 10-Mile-Long CicLAvia

The route for this Sunday’s CicLAvia was officially announced at Union Station yesterday morning (it’s just slightly different than the last version unveiled in August). LA’s favorite giant block party/temporary linear park is mixing it up for its third edition, with ten miles of street closures (up from seven and a half), running from East Hollywood through Downtown and into Boyle Heights. As the organizers point out, the route is about the same length as the stretch of the 405 that was shut down during Carmageddon. Of course, unlike Carmageddon, everyone will be able to hang out on the closed roads, so go nuts playing a boardgame, skateboarding, or enjoying a (legal) fancy dinner. In addition to the longer route, there’ll also be many organized activities and happenings along the way, including 13 programs funded by CicLAvia mini-grants.
