This was a big event for those of us that lived in the Knickerbocker Village vicinity. It included a neighborhood parade. Later on there was parade that inaguarated the Two Bridges Little League Season. They're all now part of history. This photo from the nypl digital collection is from 1933, just prior to the construction of Knickerbocker Village. They're marching west on Cherry Street. You can see Madonna House on the right. It's to the left of the light colored building on the corner. That's the Manhattan Bridge in the background.
