If you do not have an office on Broadway, then viewing is best in front of your TV set!

IF the Yanks go all the way, one of the best places to view the parade would be on Broadway near Park Place. That is where I saw the Giants parade last year. Remember: get their early.

Sadly, according to the New York Times, the best place may be your TV set. Apparently we just got a new stadium with badly crumbling concrete in less than a year? The companies involved allegedly had ties to the mob, and multiple violations elsewhere. The city now must verify the integrity of the building itself. Just do a search for "yankee stadium cracks emerge" and I am sure you will find it.

Didim't mean to be "Debbie Downer" though, so all I know is that I heard the cheapest seats have a very blocked view. Ive never seen it myself but only heard about it.

theyre doing some major construction at that intersection, most of park place is dug up. might not be as good a spot now as it once was.

The OP was asking about the parade not going to a game.
