Italian Pride Takes Center Stage As Columbus Day Parade Draws The Masses To Midtown

A million people were expected to attend the largest celebration of Italian-American culture in the world as New Yorkers turned out Monday for the 74th annual Columbus Day parade.

The pride of the red, white and green was on display as hundreds of thousands of spectators lined the parade route, along with floats and all of the pageantry, CBS2’s Janelle Burrell reported.

“This is my favorite, obviously,” the Clifton, New Jersey resident said.
