The event was part of the IAAF Grand Prix from 2007 to 2009. For 2010 it was promoted to the top-level Diamond League through 2015. It was known as the Reebok Grand Prix, and the Adidas Grand Prix until 2015.

For the 2016 Diamond League, the New York meet was replaced by Rabat, Morocco. [1] Local organizers the same day said they would announce plans to carry on the meet as a street event in New York. [2] The meeting was eventually replaced in 2016 by the Adidas Boost Boston Games. [3]

After a six-year hiatus, the meet returned in 2022 under its current name as a World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meet. [4]
