There is a street in Williamsburg that has been pedestrianized. I cant remember which one.
Broadway has had large expansions to its curbing from the flatiron building to union square.
Its a slow process but its getting there.

Broadway has expanded the sidewalk but it is definitely not closed to traffic. Also 2 partial closures in a city of 10 million kind of proves the point.
One street in a city the size of NY?
I thought you were joking when I read that reply. I thought it might have been straight out of a Monty Python sketch. ;)
On that note, if you want to get an idea what pedestrianization does to cities, enter "Barcelona Superblocks" into your fav. search engine.
NYC needs more, but I think the tide is turning the right way.
