The Empire State Building is celebrating Memorial Day for four straight nights this weekend by shining red, white and blue.
Starting Friday and lasting through Monday night, the skyscraper's tower lights will light up in our flag's colors and at the top of each hour, it'll sparkle in its signature white with a special "90" rotating in the mast to celebrate its 90th anniversary.
