Another JFK memorial type of thing I believe. They got rid of it because it was always going out anyway (wind I think). Something to note, the prettiest time of year for the Liberty Pole is the winter holiday season. They string white lights up the wires for the poles, creating a very urban "Christmas" tree. The city used to sponsor a big "Pole Lighting" ceremony, but I got the impression that not much had been going on there for the past couple of years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
