Historic horse parade returns to Brooklyn this Saturday
Brooklyn’s equestrian past included carriage drives and bridle paths, horse shows and parades.
This Saturday, horse fanciers are making a “small first shot” at returning the grand tradition of the horse parade to Prospect Park, thanks to Brooklyn industrialist and horse fancier John Quadrozzi Jr.
The Prospect Park Equine Rally “will celebrate the revival of the urban horse in Prospect Park, a park built for horses,” Quadrozzi told the Brooklyn Eagle.
