ASTORIA, N.Y. – Senate Deputy Leader Michael Gianaris released photos of New York State landmarks illuminated in blue on March 25, observing Greek Independence Day.

“As the son of Greek immigrants, I hold very close to my heart the Greek-American experience,” said Senate Deputy Leader Michael Gianaris. “I am glad New York State recognizes the sacrifices of those who came before us and celebrates the Hellenic values that have influenced the rest of the world.”
