PHOTOS: Third Summer Stroll Brings Another Fun Evening
The third time was the charm.
After an afternoon in which the skies opened, and torrents ensued, the rain subsided and weather finally cooperated for Third Avenue’s third Summer Stroll. Held on Friday, August 3 from 68th to 80th Streets, the event once again highlighted local businesses, as strollers enjoyed the opportunity to eat outdoors and take in live entertainment.
“I think the Summer Stroll gods were looking kindly upon us,” said Third Avenue Merchants President Bob Howe. “ It took people a little bit of time to get back into Summer Stroll mode but by about 7 or 8 p.m., the avenue was filled and people were happy, enjoying their neighborhood, grandchildren and children, and the fact that they could enjoy their neighborhood.”
