Sunday's Bronx Week
Parade, Music, and Food Festival was the perfect ending to the 10
days of Bronx Week. The weather was perfect, and hundreds and
hundreds of people marched along Mosholu Parkway in the Bronx Week
Parade. After the parade they joined hundreds of others who were
enjoying the food and informational tables that were set up along the
other side of Mosholu Parkway. The topper to all this was the Music
Festival that could be heard blocks away that rocked the streets.
It appears the city
spruced up the island between both sides of Mosholu Parkway with up
to 50 newly planted trees, and the day before the parade much
gardening was done to the grass. The only thing left to do was to
repave the roadway, but maybe that will happen before next years
Bronx Week Parade across Mosholu Parkway.
The FDNY opened the
parade, with Bronx Walk of Fame Honorees The daughter of the late
businessman
and philanthropist, Alfredo Thiebaud,
Actor
and Activist Malik Yoba; and NBA Legend and Hall of Famer Dolph
Schayes arrived next to be escorted to the reviewing stand where
parade co-hosts Bronx BP Ruben Diaz Jr., and Dr. Bob Lee were .
Actress,
Author and Television commentator Stacey
Dash missed the parade as she had to catch a flight right after the
induction ceremony. The photos below will tell the rest of the story.
