Summer Streets, the city experiment that for three Saturdays this month closed off long stretches of Park Avenue and other streets to cars and trucks, came to an end this weekend.

From the Brooklyn Bridge to Park Avenue and the Upper East Side, thousands of people filled the streets, taking part in activities like street-side tai chi or salsa dancing.

Jim Mamary and Alan Harding, who have been credited with seeding the culinary flowering of Brooklyn, are facing opposition from neighborhood residents for the first time.
