We’re on the eve of the BIG Game - Super Bowl XLVIII hosted by both New York and New Jersey, and played in Met Life Stadium, home of the New York Giants and Jets. As part of the festivities, a portion of Broadway in the heart of Manhattan was transformed into Super Bowl Boulevard to celebrate all things football. NFL fans can find photo ops, player autographs, throw and catch footballs, and even gaze upon the trophy the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks are tussling over this coming Super Bowl Sunday. To help you get excited for the NY/NJ Super Bowl come along for a photo walk of NYC’s Super Bowl Boulevard strolling up Broadway from Macy’s at Herald Square to Times Square.
If you’re not familiar with the area, look at the map below for the extent of Super Bowl Boulevard.
