Last night, the Empire State Building introduced its new tower antenna LED lights with a Halloween light show. Did you see the augh-some show? If not, here's video:
Like the July 4th lighting display, the lights were coordinated with music that was simulcast on Z100. The songs were "This Is Halloween," "Ghostbusters," "Monster Mash," "Halloween" and "Somebody's Watching Me."
The new lights on the antenna allow the Empire State Building with another 200 feet of lighting capability for daily lightings and light shows.
