Let there be light

My block of St. Helens, between 4th and 6th, has been dark since I moved in here in October of 2003. No functioning street lights for three years on one of Tacoma's main access points.

Finally they are in place and this week they were lit. The lights are the same that dot I St. and seem to be the new norm for Tacoma. I can't say I'm super-excited about the fixtures; they're not exactly at a pedestrian scale. But at this point any light is good light.
