New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced that subway grates on a stretch of sidewalk in Manhattan come with a new feature -- they're "high-heel friendly." The MTA said the grates installed above the East 55th Street Ventilation Facility between Park and Madison avenues were designed in part to address the complaints of wearers of high-heeled shoes, who have long struggled with their heels becoming wedged in the grates.
