"This day is special because it captures the spirit of Bay Ridge, where community and local businesses are at the heart of everything we do," Lovejoy said.
"Balancing the needs of merchants, securing permits, and handling the promotional aspects also require a great deal of planning and collaboration," she said.
"The event allows residents and visitors to experience all the things Fifth Avenue has to offer, from its diverse shops and restaurants to its welcoming, tight-knit feel," Lovejoy explained.
"But in the end, according to Lovejoy, it's a win-win situation for both the surrounding community, as well as the small businesses in the area."
