Big NYC parade for 'Big Blue;' Super Giants to celebrate with ride through 'Canyon of Heroes'

The Canyon of Heroes is the place to be Tuesday. Unless, that is, you are a driver.

Then, watch out.

Because Tuesday is when the City of New York officially honors the New York Giants for their stunning upset of the New England Patriots Sunday in Super Bowl XLII. And the only vehicles welcome in the area will be the ones carrying Giants players along the route.

The parade will begin sometime around 11 a.m. at Battery Park. The route then winds north along Broadway, through to so-called "Canyon of Hereos," before turning onto Chambers and making its way to City Hall -- where the mayor will host ceremonies at 1 p.m.

All that said, best to avoid Lower Manhattan -- probably anything below Delancey and definitely anything below Canal -- all day tomorrow, unless you're headed to the parade. And, if you are, take the subway or other public transportation.
