The U.S. women's soccer team made everyone proud during the World Cup and now the city wants to give the champions a Big Apple-sized salute.
Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer called on Mayor Bill de Blasio yesterday to hold a ticker-tape parade down the Canyon of Heroes for the team this summer.
Brewer, who also launched a Change.org petition for the parade, said New York is the perfect spot to celebrate the team's first championship in 16 years.
