What happened
The horse-drawn carriage industry in Central Park is set to end, according to Council Speaker Julie Menin. The effort to phase out the industry traces back to a proposal made by Avella in 2007, which called for an outright ban on the business.
Why it matters
The transition away from the industry involves ongoing discussions between the legislative and executive branches of the City of New York. The end of the business was prompted by a teenager's death earlier this year.
