Mr. Ralph Gardner of the Wall Street Journal recently wrote an article about his mother deciding to always live in an apartment along the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade path. That’s an interesting concept for a buyer, and a challenge for the broker.

I believe his mother had a great idea, because now Mr. Gardner has a lifetime of memories viewing the parade from his mother’s Central Park West location. His view from the fifth floor must be amazing as the enormous cartoon floats go by, meanwhile all the cold jealous people below look up at you. In my view an apartment with a parade view is additional value onto your new apartment. I would consider it a major selling point.

The path starts at 77th Street and Central Park West and ends at 34th Street right in front of Macy’s of course. Ideally you should buy a condo on Central Park West with the year long view of Central Park and the annual view of the parade.

If you are interested in living along the parade route, please contact one of our agents in CondoDomain. We would be more than happy to help you  get that view.
