Day of March - 9/17

📍 Location

350Brooklyn will meet up between 55th and 56th Street (west side of Broadway) in front of the Medical Training Institute. Best route is the subway to 59th Street Columbus Circle and walk south on Broadway until you find us. Look for tall bamboo poles with small blue flags that say 350!

🕐  Start / End Time

Arrive at 12:00 PM (the later you arrive, the harder it will be to get to our meeting spot). The march is supposed to begin at 1:00 PM but expect delays.

 

The march will cross town on 52nd Street and turn South at 1st Avenue to 50th Street, where there will be a rally at 3:00 PM. The rally is scheduled to end at 4:00 PM. As this will be a huge crowd, expect everything to run later than planned. Find more info on the March website.
