To celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah, the Empire State Building's lights have been split: Two sides are blue and white (for Hanukkah) while the other two are red and green (for Christmas). The lights remain split through January 6, 2009.

From BF's place we see the red and green side.

Almost didn't post this as no source is known, nor is a higher resolution copy available but it was just too awesome to let it pass by. Looking around it seems there are a lot of people trying to track down the details on this image. I'll update it when the answer is discovered. picked by 2manyusernames 12 months ago
