Christmas lights to adorn Dyker, Bensonhurst biz areas
Brannan works with FIAO to brighten shopping strips
SOUTH BROOKLYN — “Where there’s light, there’s life,” said Jack Spatola, president of the Federation of Italian-American Organizations of Brooklyn, as he made the announcement that two Southwest Brooklyn shopping strips will have Christmas lights this season after many years of darkness.
The FIAO joined forces with Councilmember Justin Brannan to ensure that 13th Avenue and 18th Avenue will be adorned with Christmas lights to entice shoppers and make the holiday season brighter for the Dyker Heights and Bensonhurst communities.
