Empire State Building Goes Green for Eid by Haris Shakeel.

The Empire State Building is aglow in green this weekend to honor Eid-al-Fitr – a three-day celebration for Muslims around the world – that marks the end of Ramadan.

The 102-story building routinely lights up its famous spire to honor everything from traditional holidays to sporting events to notable charities to “the myriad ethnic groups living in the New York City area,” according to the building’s website.

Thursday night marked the first time the all-green lighting was used to mark the kickoff of Eid-al-Fitr. Source: foxnews.com
