“We had a great time,” reported Hispanic Society First Vice President Fernando Pagán, who marched down Fifth Avenue on Sunday, June 12, with NYCHA’s contingent in New York’s 59th Puerto Rican Day Parade! “I have a short video (15 seconds) of us marching. It was filmed by Channel 7 Eyewitness News,” he added. If you saw NYCHA’s contingent marching on Eyewitness News, tell us at NYCHANow@nycha.nyc.gov. Glad everyone enjoyed the day–and the pride.
