Macy's Parade Info.

Here is all the information about the parade. It starts at 77th and Central Park West, heads south, then goes south on 6th ave. The site says that if you want a good spot you need to be on 6th Ave by 7am.

Heres how to get to Central Park from Tarrytown.

I would recommend the 6:07am train to Grand Central.

When you get off the train at Grand Central, which is on 42nd and Park, head west to 42nd and 6th ave and then head north and anywhere along 6th Ave up to Central Park will give a good view of the parade.
