The hottest office perk in NYC today: a front-row view of the Knicks parade

Crowds swarmed in for a chance to see the New York Knicks NBA Championship parade, but some workers were able to enjoy the action from the comfort of their offices.

A building overlooking Broadway in lower Manhattan proved to be the hottest office perk on Thursday. Employees quickly took advantage of the elevated viewing angle, with some hanging out of their building's windows.

Reporters and editors joined the excitement, standing on top of furniture along windows to watch. It's been 53 years since the New York Knicks last won an NBA Championship.

The only catch for office workers: you first had to get to your building, navigating jam-packed subways and closed-off portions of the street.
