As elements of the urban landscape, New York City streetlights vary according to the characteristics of their locations. Central Park, the soul of the city, gets all its light from exquisite luminaires, designed with tulip silhouette and sculptured loops interlaced with ornamental arcs to convey a unique botanical motif.
Built to the city's vandal resistance specifications, each fixture meets the impact test standard of New York City, among the most stringent anywhere. The airtight polycarbonate optical chamber (measuring 27-inches tall, 20-inch diameter) is supported by an 8-foot, high-strength aluminum structure with a decorative base, highly resistant to damage, weather, and the passage of time.
The authentic Central Park Luminaire, manufactured for the city by Sentry Electric, is, for the first time, available for private installation. It has been fitted for standard incandescent bulbs, easily relamped without special tools.
Besides increasing safety and security, the classic lamp enhances the nighttime character of a distinctive home.
