WATCH: OKC's 6th Street Gateway illuminated as sign of hope to mark 30 years since bombing

Ahead of the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing, the gateway leading into Downtown along Northwest 6th Street has been illuminated as part of a partnership between the city and multiple organizations.

The "Be the Light" display was a collaborative effort between the City of Oklahoma City, the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum and the Downtown OKC Partnership.

The OKCNMM said the illumination is a gift to Oklahoma City for the city's support over the past 30 years.

The memorial foundation said the illumination is "a powerful symbol of how light has emerged from a day of darkness."
