One of New York's grandest and oldest traditions returned, the St. Patrick's Day Parade!
It was first celebrated in New York City in 1762. This will be the 262nd time it's celebrated.
Street closures start at 10 a.m. and Fifth Avenue from 42nd Street to 86th Street and all cross streets will be closed to vehicles and bicycles along the parade route. Organizers say this year's parade is raising money for Catholic Charities, City Harvest, and City Meals on Wheels, organizations that work to help people have better access to food.
