Building with Christmas Lights?!

I am not sure if this is a reposted, but the Christmas is coming so it's time to share about the Christmas Lights on the buildings.

I don't have any pictures of building with Christmas Lights, but would like to see yours

The penobscot in Detroit is lit up with red and green, but I couldn't find an image of that. But here is a shot of detroit's skylighting.

Most of the cranes are lit up too.

Almost every crane in San Diego has Christmas lights on it, as well as many buildings. I'll try to get pictures later.

I can't wait to see the San Diego cranes all lit up- that must look hella cool.

If I had a camera I'd go out and take Christmas pics of all the Chicago buildings, they are really decked out. Merchandise Mart's lighting scheme is quite stunning. The Hancock and Sears have their top and antennae lit up as usual. Various other buildings have lit crowns, probably 20-30 buildings in Chicago light up for holidays...
