Our involvement with the Light it Up Memphis program began when RDLD was approached by an affiliation of downtown public and private entities, who shared a common goal of revitalizing the core urban area, and bringing citizens and tourists alike back into downtown during the evening hours. We made several trips to Memphis, and then presented a very successful three-night, 10-site lighting mock-up and civic celebration. We subsequently published our Lighting Master Plan for the city, encompassing streets, sidewalks, building facades, parks, plazas, the Harahan Bridge and the riverfront in the historic downtown area, and including traditional as well as public art lighting and custom luminaries and poles. We realized our common goal, and now are turning those plans into permanent architectural lighting.
