PHOTOS: Fourth and final Summer Stroll draws crowds, smiles
The fourth and final installment of this season’s Summer Stroll on Third went off without a hitch, despite one passing rainstorm, on Friday, August 11.
The four-part event – a summer staple in Bay Ridge – once again drew thousands to the nabe’s Third Avenue shopping strip, its last night a shining example of its importance to the ‘hood.
“But for the two minutes of rain at 8:30, I think it was a very huge success,” said Merchants of Third Avenue President Bob Howe. “We’re finding that, more and more, Bay Ridge people are looking forward to the Stroll – they want to make sure that they’re there for it.”
