Empire State Building pays respect to emergency workers
Team L&M
The Empire State Building shines in its signature white lights on nights when a lighting for an organisation or holiday is not scheduled. Beginning March 30, and through the COVID-19 battle, these signature white lights will be replaced nightly with the Heartbeat of America in bright red with a siren of red and white in the mast to pay respect to the heroic emergency workers on the front line of the fight.
“The Empire State Building is an international symbol of dreams and struggles overcome,” said Anthony E Malkin, Chairman and CEO of building owner Empire State Realty Trust. “Tonight, and every night in this struggle, she is a beacon to remind us we are all in this together, and we will come out of this together.”
The Empire State Building’s world-famous tower lights, in partnership with iHeartMedia’s Z100, will continue to sync to a broadcast Alicia Keys’ Empire State of Mind on every night at 9 pm.
