You don’t have to be Irish to love Bay Ridge St. Patrick Day Parade
Irish eyes were certainly smiling on Bay Ridge’s Third Avenue on Sunday, as the neighborhood celebrated the spirit of Saint Patrick and saluted the Emerald Isle in grand style.
But Irish eyes weren’t the only ones smiling at the 22nd Annual Bay Ridge St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
Spectators, who eagerly lined the route along Third Avenue from Marine Avenue to 67th Street, were treated to a variety of memorable sights and sounds, bagpipe bands, high school marching bands, Irish step dancers and colorful floats.
