White Plains Road Menorah Lighting


   On Saturday for the first time thanks to the generosity of newly elected Assemblyman Mark Gjonaj there was a menorah lighting at the intersection of White Plains Road and Pelham Parkway. Over 200 local residents joined Congressman Eliot Engel, State Senator Jeff Klein, Assemblyman Mark Gjonaj, White Plains Road BID Director Joe Thompson, and Rabbi Zuckerman. Jelly dounuts and hot coffee were also provided. Below are photos of the event.
