The lights in the crown kind of drown it out here. I'm sure it looks better in person.

I hope it's not lit up tonight. If it is, that rooftop lighting will always drown it out. I'm only a block from there right now. Maybe I'll walk over and look at it.

It definitely looks lit, but the webcam is not picking up the color well.

I don't usually like signs, but I sort of think it complements the crown nicely.

I love it. I thought it looked too plain with the crown just being all white. This adds some character.

I know some may dissagree with me on this but I wish the crown lighting was more than it is. I see so much potential looking at the above picture. We have tons of plain white lighting, would be cool if they had the option of changing up the coloration. They could have done a lot of cool effects with colored lighting the steel bars running up the side there let alone the bars at the top of the crown. Overall it's a good lighting scheme, but I think it could have been more.

Highly visible colors. They seem to have dimmed the white light of the crown.
