On December 3, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz and Mayor Bloomberg flipped the switch on a holiday lighting installation at Grand Army Plaza. LEDs, energy-efficient and long-lasting lights that are environmentally friendly, are being used to illuminate the Bailey Fountain and a tree underneath the Sailors and Soldiers’ Memorial Arch at the Plaza.

“Once again, Brooklyn’s magnificent Grand Army Plaza and Bailey Fountain will be illuminated in the festive spirit of the season,” said BP Markowitz. “And this year the City gives a joyous gift to the environment as well, by using a spectacular ‘green’ LED display, that says with a Brooklyn accent, “Happy ‘Green’ Holidays!”
