“Eric Adams’ Fifth Avenue promenade shows promise — but it’s a long way from making Midtown Xmas-tourist-friendly” Ghost-town Midtown is a thing of the past.

“#Midtown a ghost town before Rockefeller Center tree lighting” The Ghosts of Christmas Present were about the only ones allowed near the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting Wednesday night — thanks to COVID restrictions that all but emptied the plaza of its people and its cheer.
