'Doctor Who' Fans Want Empire State Building Lit Up TARDIS Blue

The iconic Empire State Building in New York City changes the color of its lights at the top of the building to celebrate certain occasions. As far as we know, it’s never celebrated Doctor Who — and fans of the show want that to change.
Someone has started a Change.org petition to get the building lit up TARDIS blue on Nov. 23.
Fans of the show will recognize the date as the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, which first premiered Nov. 23, 1963. The 50th-anniversary special for the show will air this Nov. 23 in a simultaneous broadcast in 70 countries.
The petition is aimed at the company that owns the Empire State Building, and it already has 30,917 signatures, with a goal of 35,000. The petitioners have filed the official application with the company for the lighting, but they think a petition would be a good show of support. Couldn’t hurt.
In their explanation, the petitioners say they don’t believe the Empire State Building has ever been lit to celebrate a science fiction show. It was lit green in 2009 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but we can’t think of any other examples off hand.
We happen to be in New York, so if the petitioners get their way and the building is lit up like the TARDIS, we’ll do our best to get some photos for you on the day. We know the Empire State Building can be lit in a variety of colors, but what we want to know is if the light at the top can slowly pulse while loudspeakers play that whooshing noise?
