The iconic Stonewall Inn in Manhattan's Greenwich Village has been a site of lots of celebration and activity in light of New York City's upcoming Gay Pride Parade and the recent Supreme Court ruling that legalized same-sex marriage in all 50 states.

Crowds swarmed the popular tavern late into the night on Friday, both at and around the Stonewall Inn, to celebrate marriage equality across the land. However, before the Supreme Court ruled in favor of same-sex marriage, The Stonewall Inn received landmark status as the birthplace of the gay rights movement on Tuesday by the City's Landmarks Preservation Commission. Back in 1969, police raided the bar, sparking what many people call the modern gay rights movement.

"This is the birthplace of the gay civil rights movement in 1969, this is where it all started and a lot of those people aren't still around and this is a way to commemorate them," Hell's Kitchen resident Brandon Kelly said. "Come down stomp on the ground just like they did and have a party."

On Friday, people flocked to the historic bar to celebrate both strides of victory in the LGBT movement. The Stonewall Inn was also a flurry of activity on Saturday as people celebrated the Supreme Court's 5-4 decision and got ready for the Gay Pride Parade, which is schedule to take place on Sunday down 5th Avenue.

"It's such a wonderful time to be here, for pride," Nelson Cruz said, according to The New York Daily News. "This whole place, it's going to be packed all night tonight, all day tomorrow. It was going to be crazy already, but now it's going to be a giant party."

Justin Kettler and Tim Loecker said they traveled to New York City from Texas for the weekend to take part in the festivities. They were among the hundreds of revelers celebrating equality at The Stonewall Inn on Christopher Street, where rainbow flags flew high, reports CBS New York.
