I Love A Parade! Ticker Tape And The Canyon of Heroes

Janes Walk

Led By Richard Drezen

There have been 205 ticker tape parades in NYC between 1886 and 2015 honoring many individuals as well as various organizations. Yet there remains some question over the viability of producing these parades, given their cost and that some past honorees no longer merit this unique legacy. Join us as we walk up the “Canyon of Heroes” on Broadway in lower Manhattan visiting some of the sidewalk markers which name the celebrated.
