Last year, New York City opened Fifth Avenue as a pedestrian street on December weekends. During the 2022 holiday season, New York City Mayor Eric Adams turned an 11-block stretch of the iconic Fifth Avenue into an "open street" for three weekends in December. This is just the latest example highlighting New York City's efforts to pedestrianize busy corridors. At the same time, Open Streets saw the number of businesses on them grow by 10%, while non-pedestrianized streets saw a 20% decrease in the number of businesses. However, there are downsides to Open Streets in New York City.

☆ He Lifeng: China's expected new economic tsar has big shoes to fill

BEIJING, Oct 30 (Reuters) - He Lifeng, head of China's state planning agency, is likely to succeed the country's economic tsar Vice Premier Liu He in March, but may struggle to maintain his predecessor's policy clout. That paves the way for He's expected promotion as the 70-year-old Liu is due to step down in March. The departing Liu, Xi's top economic adviser and a childhood friend, holds an unusually powerful portfolio: it covers economic policy, the financial sector and trade ties with Washington, overshadowing the role of outgoing Premier Li Keqiang. Some analysts say part of the expanded role that Liu built up during his time as economic tsar could be taken over by other top officials. "If He Lifeng does indeed get the job, his portfolio will overlap with that of the new Premier, Li Qiang," Julian Evans-Pritchard at Capital Economics said in a note.
