  • The exterior green night lighting is actually argon, not neon. At one point in time, there was to be a second twin tower, outlined in purple lights, but this tower was never built.

  • Drove through downtown this morning and it looks like they finally got the new LED lighting up and running. They had the building alternating with about five or six different colors....interesting to see, though I think green still looks the best.
