samagon Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I'm thinking 4 honking huge spotlights, like 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 candlepower on each corner, pointed straight up. even on a cloudless night, the super lumens plus pollution would make for a bright light shining into the heavens and blinding pilots for miles. 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Caleb Posted August 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2021 1/4th of the crown was lit tonight and it cements Texas Tower as the most stunning addition to the skyline. Even just with 1/4th of it lit. The light was brightest along the very top of the slanted crown along the roof. The light cascades through the rest of the crown and mostly clear glass gently fading towards the bottom of the crown. I was in awe! Unfortunately I didn’t get pictures because I was driving. 😔 12 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
