2nd Candle in Grand Army Plaza in Manhattan

Since last year this menorah became known as the largest kosher menorah in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records. It is lit every night with a respectable presence in Grand Army Plaza on 59th Street and 5th Avenue in Midtown Manhattan.

Last night the Menorah was lit by Sheldon Silver, 64th Assembly District and is the house Speaker.

    FYI:

    There is two ‘Grand Army Plaza’s’.

    One is the circle between Estern Parkway and Flatbush Ave. (the one we all know), and one on 59th St. and 5th Av. in midtown Manhattan.

    What are the times of the lighting of menorah this week in Manhattan?

    what time is the lighting in grand army plaza in brooklyn?

    I think it’s a big kiddush hashem and lubavitche that there are so many lightings. I come from a place where there is not so much happening on Chanukah so keep up the good work

  • in the name of Lubavitch

    This year Rabbi Butman gets to fly in his “private” jet two Fridays in a row!!!

    keep it up!
