Due to the construction at White Plains Road and Pelham Parkway the traditional Menorah and Christmas Tree have been relocated this year to the corner of Pelham Parkway and Williamsbridge Road at the Peace Plaza.
On hand for the Menorah and Christmas Tree were a small select group of people which included Councilman Mark Gjonaj, Assemblywoman Nathalia Fernandez, Rabbi Saabia Pewzner, Bronx Jewish Community Council Executive Board member Steve Glosser, members of the 49th Precinct and a few others including technicians who were live streaming the event on Facebook. Due to the Pandemic members of the public were asked not to attend, but view the event on Facebook as it was happening.
