Zuccotti Park Holiday Lighting

November 29, 2015 by Deirdre McAndrew

Zucotti Park Holiday Lighting

Zuccotti Park Holiday Lighting. Celebrate the start of the holidays downtown. Come for live music by Metropolitan Klezmer and Cara Samantha and delicious treats. Enjoy the illumination of the park with thousands of lights. 

Zuccotti Park, formerly known as Liberty Plaza Park, is a located in a privately owned public space controlled by Brookfield Properties. The park’s northwest corner is across the street from Four World Trade Center and has been popular with local tourists and financial workers. The park was damaged in September 11 attacks, but since then has been recovered. The plaza was used as the site of several events commemorating the anniversary of the attacks. After 2006 renovations, the park was renamed by its current owners after company chairman John Zuccotti.

Metropolitan Klezmer is an electrical Yiddish band that performs music from all over. Performing vibrant versions of original songs are perfect fro holiday celebrations. They re-invent tradition for audiences of all ages!

Cara Samantha is an NYC based vocalist known for her debut on American Idol Season 12. She grew up singing the classics of Nat King Cole and Drank Sinatra, but strayed away as she got older. Her eclectic mix of genres and styles is enjoyable for everyone.

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
