I'm really not seeing anything different or new in that image compared to the last one other than the angle of the shot.

There's clouds in the first one.

I just drove by and they were delivering the video board. I wasn't able to get a picture or see if they are actually hanging the screen. There's also been significant work on the north side too.

Almost half of the board is up

Can anyone post pics with the board going up?

[UnFrSaKn]

I have on my Twitter just now.

Cool, thanks.

This thing is huge!

I like that a smaller regional bank like BankSNB is financing this. I used to work there

Will the video board always be running? Is it going to run NewsOK stories? If so, how is the volume going to work for this? Will it just be loud enough to be heard around that intersection or will there be smaller speakers that you can stand next to to hear the stories?

You know the auto-play ads when you look at the NewsOK site? That's going to be a majority of the screen time -- and doubtful on any volume.

Should we dust off the "Will electronic sign make Edmond (Correction: Downtown) look like Las Vegas" thread?

What does downtown OKC, or OKC in general, have to do with Edmond's electronic sign ordinance? I'd love to see a couple video screens in downtown Edmond, but then you'd have all the old people coming out and droves reminding people how they remember when Edmond was just a small town that had Wide-Awake and that gas station that used to be a gas station.

It was just a tongue in cheek statement, since on a small scale this video board is more what you will see covering buildings of the strip now verses older era pole signs.

I'd appreciate some basic brightness control linked to a photocell. The video screen doesn't need to be as bright at night as it is during the day. (looking at you, Chesapeake Energy Arena sign)

And I hate that! It used to light up the Colcord, Devon, and even First National! I was kind of dissapointed to see that it isn't doing that anymore. But hey I get it, saves energy

While I get what you are saying and appreciate the humor, there is a difference between pedestrian oriented/place making signs and signs in front of a CVS directed at drivers advertising the price of milk and candy every 30 seconds.

and doubtful on any volume.

Drove by tonight, the whole sign is up, with a speaker on each side
