Good Friday is one of the most powerful and impactful holidays for those that believe and follow Jesus as God. NYC took part and my hope is that the city will continue to as they once did in such a powerful way.

On Good Friday in 1956, several New York City skyscrapers in the financial district turned on their office lights to form giant glowing crosses against the night sky.

Workers in buildings like 60 Wall Tower, 20 Exchange Place, and the Forty Wall Street building stayed late or arranged their lights just right. Each cross stood about 150 feet tall. The display honored the day Christians remember the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It created a powerful scene visible across much of Manhattan and reflected how openly faith shaped public life back then.

The image has resurfaced on social media in recent years. Many people share it as a reminder of a time when cities felt comfortable showing religious symbols without hesitation. Groups such as the Catholic Action Committee helped organize similar displays during the 1950s. The sight brought a sense of unity and reflection to everyday New Yorkers going about their routines.

That moment from decades ago still sparks conversations today about how communities express what matters most to them. It stands as part of the city's layered history and leaves room for people to think about shared values across generations. This is one worth remembering.
