Early Addition: The fight over e-bikes in NYC parks
Because some people want to ban them, here are your early links: Pink foot sculpture, bodega for dinosaurs, Harry Styles at the conclave and more.
Good Friday morning in New York City, where the pigeons are trying to mate.
Here's what else is happening:
Arthur, a carriage horse who made headlines in 2018 after getting spooked and crashing into two parked cars near Central Park, has died after a pleasant retirement on a farm in the Hamptons.
More than 100 people rallied outside Central Park earlier this week to push for a ban on e-bikes in all city parks.
The High Line now has a giant statue of a pink foot.
The Grand Army Plaza subway station now has a bodega-for-dinosaurs installation.
Herald Square is getting a giant Old Navy.
Brooklyn Mirage: still not open.
Steve Bannon guessed right on the new pope.
Pretty sure Harry Styles made a conclave cameo.
