Chabad of Hewlett held its first ever public menorah lighting on Tuesday at Merrill Lynch on Broadway.

Rabbi Nuchem Tenenboim partnered with Merrill Lynch Resident Director Roei Gigi on the event, which Gigi said he hopes becomes an annual tradition.

Jack Rybszdajm, a Holocaust survivor from Woodmere, said the blessing before the lighting of the menorah.
