The First Street Green Art Park is a park on the Lower East Side that allows anybody to paint street art murals on its walls. If you want to paint a mural, simply submit your artwork to the park's curators, get approval, then paint it! Take a peek inside the park in this short video from our friends at The Lo-Down New York.

"Nestled amid Houston and 2nd Ave, First Street Green Art Park is one of the few places in New York City where artists can practice graffiti without getting into the trouble. All they need to do is to submit their artwork to the park's curators."

The NYPD has a new fleet of 14 drones. The department said on Tuesday that the potential uses include search and rescue, hard-to-reach crime scenes, hostage situations and hazardous material incidents. Officials say the drones can reduce risk to officers and bystanders during a response to dangerous situations and will be operated by officers who are specially trained and licensed.
