Just trying to figure out what the best way to this is....any advice from people who know the city well?

I avoid these kind of things, too crowded for me, so I'm no help. All I know is it's somewhere downtown.

If i get someone to work for me i will probably go. We take the train from right here in town. We cross over on the ferry from Hoboken and end up right in the middle of where the parade goes up Broadway. That is what we did for all the Yankees parades.

Nope. The Giants have accomplished the mission of bringing down Belichick's Patri*ts ........ now I can go back to detesting all teams from New York, thus restoring balance and order in my world.

Why isn't the parade in Jersey?

If overcrowding is a problem the Giants could move their celebration to Boston. I hear it's pretty quiet up there.......when does spring training start again????

Because Exit 15w to exit 1 is a long walk on the Turnpike?

My husband, son and some of my students are headed up together. They are going to park at Metro Park in Iselin ( aunt lives across street), and take train into city. From what I hear, you can't get anywhere near there NOW and it's only 6:30pm Mon. night....gonna be nuts.

I am an Eagles Fan, but it was such a great game !! Congrats Giants.

A parade of this magnitude would bring too much revenue to the state and we wouldn't want that now, would we??

I am in the middle of busy season at work so i doubt I can go but it starts at 11am at battery place and goes uo to City Hall so very Southern Manhattan. It goes up the Canyon of Heroes which is Broadway I believe.....
