$50G to light up Nay Aug Park
Scranton spends $50G to light up park
On Dec. 6, Nay Aug Park will be transformed into a wonderland of lighted holiday scenes that will be on display for free.
The Scranton Redevelopment Authority is purchasing about $50,000 worth of lighted figures, many animated, which will be placed throughout the park. Strings of lights will also illuminate the park's trees.
While the SRA conjures up visions of rehabilitating blighted street blocks rather than of sugarplums, SRA chairman Richard Conaboy Jr. said the lights are in keeping with the SRA's redevelopment mission.
"We're trying to bring people back into Scranton," he said, noting Nay Aug Park can be a draw to get families to move here.
