Lower Manhattan’s Confetti King, Joe Timpone, Discusses Parade in New Video
Strips of Recycled Paper Will Be Distributed Tomorrow by the Downtown Alliance to Buildings along Lower Manhattan’s Mile-Long Canyon of Heroes
NEW YORK, NY (February 6, 2012) — In preparation for Tuesday’s ticker-tape parade honoring the New York Giants for their 2012 Super Bowl victory, the Alliance for Downtown New York is preparing Lower Manhattan for its 203rd ticker-tape parade in the city’s history and the second parade to celebrate a New York Giants Super Bowl victory.
WHAT: Downtown Alliance Bags One Ton of Confetti in Preparation for New York Giants Super Bowl Victory Ticker-Tape Parade
WHO: Joe Timpone, Senior Vice President for Operations
Downtown Alliance Operations Team
WHERE: 85 Washington Street
WHEN: Noon
The Downtown Alliance will provide interviews and photo opportunities regarding the logistics of the ticker-tape operation with Joe Timpone, the Downtown Alliance Senior Vice President of Operations. Watch Timpone discuss the event in this new video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRHx2hNPQzg. A 31-year veteran of the Sanitation Department, Timpone was appointed Director of Cleaning and Collection (the highest ranking uniformed position) in 1990 and has been with the Downtown Alliance since 1995. He manages the Operations Division for the Downtown Alliance, overseeing public safety, sanitation, transportation services, construction mitigation and streetscape maintenance.
The Downtown Alliance Operations team will be bagging and distributing the paper to more than 20 buildings along the parade route. There will be 110 sanitation and safety officers to handle crowd control, litter and clean-up, and navigational questions. The Downtown Alliance typically receives one ton of recycled paper from Atlas Materials in Red Hook. The most-recent parade, for the New York Yankees in 2009, consumed more than 56.55 tons of shredded paper.
Commemorating each previous ticker-tape parade in chronological order, the Downtown Alliance has embedded 179 black granite plaques in the sidewalk on both sides of Broadway throughout the mile-long Canyon of Heroes to create the “Walk of Fame” (over 20 are in storage until the Fulton Street Transit Center is completed). For more information on the Canyon of Heroes please visit: http://www.downtownny.com/what-we-do/street-scape/canyon-of-heroes.
The mission of the Alliance for Downtown New York is to provide service, advocacy, research and information to advance Lower Manhattan as a global model of a 21st century Central Business District for businesses, residents and visitors.
