In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the New York City Pride March, NYC Parks today unveiled new signage featuring the colors of the new, inclusive pride flag in four parks along various routes the parade has taken over 50 years: Washington Square Park, Union Square, Madison Square Park, Grand Army Plaza and Central Park. The signage provides a sense of unity that commemorates the history and legacy of the LGBTQIA+ movement and community in New York City.

“As the birthplace of the modern LGBTQ movement, Pride has become a part of New York City’s identity,” said NYC Parks Commissioner Mitchell J. Silver, FAICP. “Although we won’t be able to march in person this year, NYC Parks is proud to honor the strength and resiliency of the LGBTQIA+ community with this bright and colorful signage that reflects our commitment to social equality and individuality.”
