Streetfilms – NYC City Bike Rack Design Competition
By: Kevin Buchanan
Following up on our earlier post about bicycling in Fort Worth vs. Austin, here’s a Streetfilm about the New York City bike rack design competition. I like a couple of these, though again, I have to ask – what’s wrong with the simple, affordable inverted U rack? Install a zillion of ‘em and it’ll do a lot for bike support. Fort Worth’s current decorative “Texas star” racks are pretty lacking – they’re never in high concentrations, even in high bike-traffic spots, and they’re not even obviously bike racks.
