Red, White y Azul

empirestate.JPG The tourists snapping pics of the red, white, and blue lit Empire State Building in New York City this weekend probably thought the color scheme had to do with good ole’ patriotism towards the USA. Well they were half right. The Empire State Building was lit this past weekend, February 24 through 26, in red, white and blue but to celebrate Dominican Independence Day and Dominican Heritage Month. The lights of the Empire State Building can
be seen from as far away as 80 miles. The lighting of the Dominican colors was made possible thanks to the support of the Empire State Building Co. LLC and the office of New York State Assemblyman Adriano
Espaillat. Felicidades Dominicanos!

Interesting. My reaction to the red, white, and blue was definitely “oh god” when I first saw it.
