Here, the fixtures are the only source of illumination in an older business district that now offers tourists and locals a variety of entertainment and upscale restaurants. Originally, this area was lighted with post top fixtures mounted on black cast iron poles. When the units were retrofitted, the existing fixtures were removed and the Granville luminaires installed on the remaining poles. The poles are positioned along the sidewalk, two feet behind the curb. The sidewalk is 10 to 12 feet wide, with the street 50 feet wide.
Parking is permitted on both sides of the street.
It's always a challenge to select fixtures that offer the desired uniformity, yet are visually attractive. With the Holophane units, we have a good light pattern and the fixtures complement the historical look that is common to this area.
