Fireworks show near Statue of Liberty/Redhook??

I live in Greenwood Heights around 28th and 3rd avenue and down the way by the harbor there's randomly fireworks being set off. It's a professional operation (you can tell by the quality of the fireworks) but I have no idea who's doing it, or what organization. I'm not sure if it's coming from near IKEA in Redhook or even in Jersey...hoping someone knows more.

I think it is for the Yankees game.

There was a gala this evening on Liberty island. I think it was the culmination of that. I was at a different event on Governor's Island and got to see them up close. It was great!
