Poor Phillips, my city has to date only found value in their lights for park paths. Here is a fixture upgrade project that went from Powerlite and Cooper HPS boxes to these LEDs. Usually for a set up of this age, the city will replace the whole system (poles and wiring). Oddly enough, this project also involved spot replacement poles and underground wiring. Usually round poles are used on replacements, but they were considerate to use new poles of the original square profile. Bit of a trend around here lately of that, Model25 just uploaded a picture of a new direct-bury sectional steel pole that has been unheard of around here since the 80's.
But I think these new LED fixtures look too rounded for square poles, and the arms look too long. So unfortunately the project looks like what it in fact is, a bad retrofit, for a stretch of 25-40 poles. Shame, I think this is a nice fixture for round poles.

Not a bad looking one either.
