The Sunset Park Fifth Avenue Business Improvement District held its annual street festival on September 25th.
Thousands of people enjoyed the celebration from 44th to 59th Street.
BID Executive Director David Estrada said it was one of the best festivals ever, thanks to the vendors, attractions, weather, attendance and the work of the NYPD and DSNY.

“This year, we added additional bounce houses and carnival rides to accommodate as many families as they know our event is especially fun for kids,” Estrada said.

“All in all we had a great opportunity to celebrate everything that makes Sunset Park special,” Estrada said. “We’re already planning next year.”
