They only showed one block. That’s why I’m asking.

How many people attended?

The City Hall Plaza where the Parade ended and the Women Players had a chance to give speeches had about 3,500 people.

It also said:

“Parade-goers — many wearing red, white and blue — started gathering at 3:30 a.m. along the Canyon of Heroes, a stretch of Broadway where the nation’s largest city has honored its legends. When the parade got underway at 11 a.m., the crowd was as much as 10 deep along the route.”

The Canyon of Heroes Parade is Several blocks long. That’s the traditional route of many NY sports champs like the Yankees and is the same route traveled today. It usually starts at the Southern End of Broadway and will run up through the Canyon of Heroes to Chambers Street and end up at City Hall Plaza.

That’s at least 10 blocks.
