Stranger 51/100 | Easter Parade in New York

This finely fettled fellow hails from yesterday’s Easter Parade. Michael Tapp, who had the pleasure of making this man’s acquaintance writes:

On Easter Sunday the city shuts down part of 5th avenue for the Easter Parade. No obnoxious vendors and halal, people just strut down 5th avenue in their Sunday best.

I spotted this man from a distance and I knew he would be a great subject. He knew exactly what to do and I didn’t have to direct him at all. I wanted to find out more about him but he went off to start posing for shots with children and other people. He actually reached out to people to get them in photos with him. He’s actually a pretty joyful guy.

It means a great deal to our veterans to have Greenpointers line the streets and cheer them on along the parade route.
