Continuing the Generation Yonkers theme of Yonkers Is Back to Business!, Mayor Mike Spano today joined with Downtown BID Executive Director Sara Brody to launch the Downtown Summer Celebration to promote special discounts at local restaurants. The program, which runs through the end of August, will feature discounts to dine at restaurants located in the Yonkers Downtown BID.

“Continuing the Yonkers Back to Business campaign with the Downtown Summer Celebration is a great way to boost the local economy and allow residents and visitors to dine at some of their favorite restaurants at special discounts,” said Mayor Mike Spano. “The newest iteration to the campaign is meant to spur our growing business community and show that Yonkers is stronger than ever.”

“There are a wide variety of restaurants and businesses in the downtown area that been thriving for many years, so it is important to us at the Yonkers Downtown BID to support these staples of the community,” said Sara Brody. “Partnering with Mayor Spano and the City of Yonkers on the back-to-business initiative has been great, joining forces to support local businesses is more important than ever before,” she added.
