The old picture thread of memorable moments

2 Wall Street Loves the NY Yankees.

This was from October 29th, 1996. I was 24 years old, working in NYC down on the corner of Broadway and Wall Street. Ticker Tape Parade when the Yankees beet the Atlanta Braves in the World Series.

I was on the 9/10th floor (can't remember exactly) , windows didn't open, of- course, right near Trinity Church. Snapped this picture that morning. Old now.

Still love it and the memory 25 years later!

Please share some of your old pics as well!!
