Canyon of Heroes on lower Broadway in New York City, during a ticker-tape parade for the Apollo 11 astronauts, August 1969

The Canyon of Heroes is a colloquialism used in New York City to refer to a section of lower Broadway that is the historic location of the city's ticker-tape parades.

The traditional route of the parade is northward from Bowling Green to City Hall Park. The route is lined with tall office buildings along both sides for most of its route, affording a view of the parade for many thousands of office workers as well as the snowstorm-like jettison of shredded paper products onto the parade itself.

The sidewalks along the Canyon of Heroes have black granite strips embedded within them listing honorees of past ticker-tape parades.
