Buzzfeed shot this pretty cool video of a bike ride the entire length of Broadway. The 13-mile ride elapses in only five minutes, but it shows a huge swath of architectural and economic diversity.

What was most striking to The Observer was what a different bike lanes make. Look at the stretches north and south of the so-called Broadway Boulevard, DOT's redesign of the span between Columbus Circle and Union Square. No squeezing between buses and narrowly missing cabs there.
