UPDATE: One World Trade Center to go gold
Bay Ridge pols convince Port Authority to pay tribute to kids with cancer
The Freedom Tower will be bathed in gold light in a tribute to the courage of children with cancer, thanks to a group of Bay Ridge lawmakers.
Two days after petitioning the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to have the majestic One World Trade Center tower “Go Gold” for kids with cancer, US Rep. Michael Grimm, state Sen. Marty Golden, Assemblymembers Alec Brook-Krasny and Nicole Malliotakis and Councilmember Vincent Gentile announced that their mission was succesful.
“We got them to do it. One World Trade Center is going to go gold,” Malliotakis told the Brooklyn Eagle on Thursday.
