The Alliance for Downtown New York, the nonprofit Business Improvement District for Lower Manhattan, permanently commemorated the Ticker Tape Parade honoring the New York Liberty’s 2024 WNBA championship by unveiling a granite plaque that resides in front of 250 Broadway (between Park Place and Murray Street).

Last year’s Ticker Tape parade for New York Liberty was the first for a New York City sports championship since the New York Giants were honored in 2012. It also marked the first time a women’s sports team from New York has been given a parade. It was the 209th ticker tape parade in New York history.
