Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

Nov 17, 2008 | 0 comments

If you’re lucky enough to own an apartment on Central Park West in the 70s with an eastern exposure, then you most likely don’t have any troubles finding friends on Thanksgiving.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade starts at 77th Street and Central Park West and travels a path south to Herald Square. Since first being televised in 1945, the 75 year-old parade has entertained children for decades and become a family holiday tradition.

Almost as much fun as the actual parade is the night before when they inflate the balloons. It has become as much a tradition as the actual parade and draws crowds to the Upper West Side streets from 77th to 81st between Central Park West and Columbus. While activities take place from 4 – 6pm, chances are you will want to get there early.

For information about watching the parade including when to go and where to stand, visit: www.nyctourist.com/macys_menu.htm
