This is what a car-free Newbury Street looks like
Newbury Street had a whole new look Sunday afternoon.
The bustling boulevard that’s lined with shops and restaurants was off-limits to cars between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m., giving bikers and pedestrians the chance to roam the entire street—sans exhaust and honking horns.
From biking and jogging to playing four square and table tennis, revelers found a number of ways to mark the occasion on the sunny afternoon.

Sidewalk cafes have nothing on street cafes. Roost Bistro lives it up on car-free Newbury St day. #OpenNewbury pic.twitter.com/9g8YkTvdK1
