In addition, a convoy of vehicles belonging to various non-governmental organizations and Turkish soccer fan groups also made their way to the avenue.
The parade drew an estimated 5,000 people, according to organizers.
In a video message, Turkish Communications Director Fahrettin Altun said events like the parade are a beacon for Turkish people's unity and solidarity.
"In addition, these events have a function that introduces the richness of our country to the American society, and conveys the voice of our nation," said Altun.
The parade was attended by Turkish Ambassador to US Hasan Murat Mercan, Turkey's UN envoy Feridun Sinirlioğlu and Reyhan Özgür, consul general of Turkey in New York.
A day earlier, the Turkish flag was raised on Wall Street to celebrate the festival.
