Hoboken Turns Green In Preparation For Parade Day

Shop windows, the line on the street and the Hoboken Business Center.

Just like the Empire State Building changes colors for special occasions, so does the Hoboken Business Center.

On Thursday night, this year's Grand Marshal Bill Noonan pulled the switch and turned the building green in celebration of the Hoboken St. Patrick's Day Parade which will take place on Saturday. 

This year's honorees enjoyed Irish coffees and Irish soda bread in the lobby of the building, while a bagpiper stood outside.
