For Improv Everywhere’s latest mission, they 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. Enjoy the video first and then go behind-the-scenes with the photos and report on IE’s site:

We love this billboard take over by French artist OX. Hopefully the owners of the Dunkin Donuts / Baskin Robbins appreciate the coordination with their awning.
Awesome video by Keith Haskel of a new Aakash Nihalani installation. Watch until the end.

New York artist Liz Filardi was tired of getting delivery menus slipped under her door and shoved in her face on the street. So she began collected them and adding her own messages that more accurately describe the interaction between the solicitor and solicited. She then passed them out herself on the streets.
We love this project by Jason Eppink and Posterchild. An urban prank that prompts local government to fix a problem. How great is that?
