Snowflake lighting can be seen on the 15 historic Bishop's Crook lamp-posts on either side of West 72nd Street.
Holiday snowflakes decorate the 15 historic Bishop's Crook lamp-posts that line West 72nd Street.
Back in 1998 West 72nd Street had just 7 cobra-headed streetlights. In December of 1999 these were replaced and doubled in number by the 15 historic Bishops's Crook lamp-posts that can be seen lining the street today.

The Success of 72nd Street
"Nothing on the Upper West Side slipped as dramatically as 72nd Street, from a prestigious parkway of private houses in the 1880s to little shop fronts and commercial buildings in the 1920s...but in recent years the block has taken on a honky-tonk air."
- Christopher Gray, The New York Times , 8/10/97
As a result of Landmark West's Retail Assistance Program, 72nd Street is honky-tonk no more!
