XR Washington Heights: Climate Emergency Bridge Walk

  • 5 Cabrini Boulevard New York, NY, 10033 United States (map)

Register Here

We will assemble on the west side of Cabrini Blvd between 177th Street and 178th Street - near the stairs up to the GWB pedestrian walkway.

We'll walk along the pedestrian path of the George Washington Bridge with a series of simple signs that raise awareness about the climate crisis for motorists to see.

The event is intended to be low risk and non-arrestable, so kids more than welcome to join. We need volunteers to be marshals so we don't disrupt bike traffic, de-escalators just in case, and photographers. If you can support in any of these roles please email xrwashingtonheightsinwood@gmail.com. We see this is a kind of 'trial run' for a bigger bridge walk in a month or so, but the more the merrier so please invite your friends!
