    The Pillsbury Doughboy, a parade favorite, didn’t make it far off the parade route. This pocket-sized character dodged the tourist crowds and has taken up residence at the famous cheesecake spot Junior’s, where he can help all he wants and take in a few Broadway shows while he’s at it. Hee-hee!

    Garfield, retired from the Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2011, has made a lovely home reminiscent of his roots. Born in an Italian restaurant, this feline has a love of lasagna rivaled by no other. In this neighborhood Garfield, the laziest cat, has access to the best lasagna in town, or any other Italian food for that matter.
