The latest NYC hustle: $100+ to hold a Knicks parade spot

One of the hottest pieces of real estate in New York City this week isn’t an apartment.

It’s a piece of Lower Manhattan sidewalk along the Knicks’ championship parade route — and some people are charging hundreds of dollars to hold one.

Ahead of Thursday’s celebration, would-be line sitters are advertising their services online, offering to secure prime viewing spots as the procession winds from Bowling Green through the “Canyon of Heroes” to City Hall.

On Airtasker, a gig-work platform where users can hire people for tasks and errands, multiple Knicks parade-related listings have cropped up, with asking prices ranging from $50 to $800.

The listings come from both sides of the market: people offering to hold spots along the parade route, as well as fans looking to hire someone to wait in their place.

One listing offered $750 to someone who could secure three spots near Broadway and Barclay Street from midnight Wednesday until 8 a.m.

Thursday, two hours before the parade is set to begin.

The task had already been assigned by Tuesday night.

The parade comes after the Knicks ended a 53-year championship drought on Saturday, defeating the San Antonio Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. “Through near misses, heartbreak and a hope that every year could be our year, this city never stopped believing in the Knicks.

And this team fulfilled that hope with grit, resilience and heart — just like the five boroughs itself,” New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani said in a statement on Saturday.

Following the parade, the mayor will present the Knicks with the keys to the city during a championship ceremony at City Hall Plaza.

The city is also giving away 600 tickets to the event through a public lottery that closes at 11 a.m. on June 17.
