Hi Lew, I've never been to the Boston St Patrick's Day Parade, even though I actually lived in the area while at Harvard B School. I have however, attended many a St Patrick's Day Parade in NY City down Fifth Avenue and they were always a blast. I'm sure in Boston it's the same.

Mar 14, 2025 09:38 AM
Lew Corcoran

Thanks, Nina Hollander, Broker! It’s great to hear about your NYC parade adventures—no doubt they were a blast! And the Boston vibe is definitely something special, too!🍀

Hello Lew, I am sure the Boston St. Patty day would be fun to attend.  I know lots of places have green beer but I am not a fan of that.

Lew Corcoran

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Will Hamm ! While green beer might not be your jam, I’m sure the festivities will have plenty of other delights to enjoy. Here’s to finding the perfect pint and celebrating in style!🍀

Lew Corcoran - I've been to Boston many times but never to a Boston Parade. Your picture is a great incentive to move to the area to enjoy the famous celebrations that Boston has to offer.

I have been to many St. Patrick Day Parades in Chicago. They were always wonderful, especially because the Chicago River used to be turned green for the occasion. I have no idea if they still turn the River Green, but I am green with envy for not being able to partake in the Boston or Chicago St. Patrick Day Parade. 

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you and your family.

Thank you, Patricia Feager! Your vibrant reflections on parades in both Boston and Chicago paint such a lively picture; it's hard not to grin with envy myself! Happy St. Patrick's Day to you and your loved ones—may the spirit of celebration find you wherever you are! 🍀
