NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Wednesday’s Hometown Heroes ticker tape parade featured the transit workers who helped get people around the city through COVID. CBS2’s Jenna DeAngelis hopped on board an antique train car to join them on the parade route. “MTA, going your way!” the workers on the float chanted. It was all smiles aboard the MTA float from the essential workers who carried the city through the pandemic, like Kenneth Mendez, who worked to make sure the subways were clean and safe. “It’s a great honor. You see all the people that turned outand all the workers that are here, you know. We’re all very appreciative and loving New York,” Mendez said.
