Buildings I saw lit up for the Knicks tonight: Manhattan: Empire State Building One WTC 1 Vanderbilt 270 Park Ave 50 Hudson Yards 425 Park (maybe) Queens: Sven The Orchard I’m not sure if Brooklyn has buildings that regularly participate in national or city lightings. I can’t readily see that skyline from where I’m at. Or perhaps they wouldn’t since they have their own team. I’ve always enjoyed when the city has a coordinated lighting scheme for holidays and special events. ---

I may be going crazy but I think Manhattan West added some orange to their existing blue chasing program on their towers. Also the Sven has a chasing pattern of blue and orange going on right now that I’ve never seen before. It’s not static like it was the other night. ---
