They are currently installing all the lighting planned to replace the old exterior lighting. It should be finished late July/early August. Expect to see testing throughout the month.

more like the end of the year

Maybe it is just all the work in the very top, but my friend that works for Hines was confident on the timeline.

Anyone catch the fireworks show on the Devon tower last night? While Bankfirst was showcasing the flag and looking great, the triangle at the top of the Devon tower was doing fireworks splashes. I hadn't noticed that they had put anything with LED that large up there before. Is that the first time they've used it?

Pete showed images of the same American flag graphic during testing back in February. It will be great when all triangles have that capability.

This was at 9:01 last night (July 4). There was one tiny panel that appeared to be unlit, but otherwise it looked awesome. And yes, the flag was animated.

With the way the fins run all the way up and down the side of the building they could do a really cool countdown for new years with the lighting

The fins will never be lit up again. They have substantial damage from the wind and weather in addition to historically having issues from the start. Upthread pete has a graphic with the new lighting which will all be internal.

Just saw them testing the new lights on the side fins but ok buddy

It makes way more sense components with known wear over time and entire system in the fixture could be replaced eventually, even if they actually worked great day one. There is a limit of how long any electronic component will work properly and some will fail long before the statistical average, which pales in comparison to the length the building would be around.

It seems the terminology is causing confusion.

There will be lighting on every floor within the three vertical indentions as well as the three triangles at the top. The LED lights will actually be inside the glass.

There are also vertical mesh metal panels in those indentions where the original LED system was installed. Those are now decommissioned in favor of this new interior system.

I understood what you meant. The horizontal lights won't have the same capability as the triangles, but they could have those lights light up from the bottom to the top as the triangles count down.

Its alright, you are a little confused on what is actually being lit up. I suggest you check out the images posted upthread buddy.

Really lovely photo. Thanks for this!

Devon is testing side lighting tonight. Looks good with color changing capabilities

[SagerMichael]

Lights are moving horizontally in red, green, blue, and white light

They were testing the new lighting system again last night.

Did it do better this time than last?

Have an American flag up in the triangles tonight. The insets were red blue and white.

The flag was waving and the colors were moving on the corners. Pretty cool looking.

Thanks for that.

That's going to be badass for the Olympics.

Anytime! Yeah they’re going to be great for the Thunder playoffs and other events as well. So much more versatile than the initial iteration….and they actually work so that’s nice too lol.

Any pictures so that we can visually keep up with the progress? I know I don't speak for everyone but there are some who have lived in the city that don't currently, but love to keep a close eye on all the city's improvements as it looks to take a place on the national/global stage.

Instead of having a ball drop they should slowly light up the tower ending with the triangle on top for New Years. It could be seen throughout the entire city, it would be pretty cool.
