Red Alert: Mile-long carpet in NYC<br>reminds couch potatoes to step lively
"We are very excited to contribute to America On the Move by donating the red carpet and to have the opportunity to participate in their Day of Action," said Brodsky. "This is a cause that is becoming increasingly important in the U.S. and I'm proud that Carpet One will be helping to encourage individuals to develop healthier lifestyles."
Carpet One said the late September project required 24,000 square feet of Beaulieu's carpet in the color Cherry Delight. It was laid down in about 2 hours and stayed in place for nearly 20 hours. Afterward, it was moved to a storage facility, where it was cleaned and later donated to other charitable organizations.
