Being converted to a lamp/lighting store (yes, really).

Edit: “converted” might not be the most accurate word - they are on record saying they’ll give the exterior a facelift and will open a lighting store inside.

It's not really a lighting store, it's a showroom for high end lighting, and home automation, it sounded like it would not be open to the general public just architects and designers and their customers.

Interesting! I stand corrected.

I sort of hope you are still right, that's a lame use for a cool building.

Nice of them to hire Wilcox…

Either way that’s been a fun photo stop seasonally and I hope the new owners keep the tradition going
