This welcome gesture clearly demonstrates that the principles of understanding, mutual respect, and faith can remain vibrant aspects of our world. In celebrating together with the Muslims of New York City and the United States, the Empire State Building once again shows itself to be a powerful symbol in America’s most culturally vibrant city.

Yes, indeed...

On the evenings of October 12-14, the Empire State Building—located in the heart of New York City’s most famed tourist district and recently named “America’s Favorite Building”—will be lit in green to commemorate the Muslim holiday of Eid-ul-Fitr. 
<P>We deeply appreciate this recognition of the American Muslim community by one of the United States’ most cherished landmarks and famous tourist destinations.  This welcome gesture clearly demonstrates that the principles of understanding, mutual respect, and faith can remain vibrant aspects of our world.
