Brooklyn Residents Launch Extended Fireworks Display

Brooklyn residents set up an extensive array of fireworks in the borough’s Prospect Heights neighborhood on June 19, only one of the countless such displays set off in the city this summer. This footage was recorded around 9pm, following commemorations across the city marking the Juneteenth holiday.
