DNAinfo spotlights one of our latest initiatives:

The EDC is offering up to $1 million to the best proposal for a regular outdoor light show in the Financial District — an offer that drew more than 100 people to an informational meeting on Jan. 13.

“I’ve never seen a response that big to a [request for proposal] we put out,” said Ali Davis, assistant vice president at the EDC. “It was standing-room only.”

The city proposed the light show as a way to draw more people to the Financial District after dark, enlivening the streets and boosting local businesses.
