I am very confused! Where is this! What is happening!

Queen Street! Between Mississauga road and Chinguacousy

They are widening it and adding 2 or 3 Zum stops for the 501 WB after the downtown terminal

Ah! The last fishhead is a gonner too! I also see some nice mature trees across the fishead, and new powerlines with the tear drops go behind the trees, I don't like seeing trees clearcut for road widening.

I think these teardrops, and mostly on these long arms look like something out of the 1800's steampunk aesthetic movement. One of the coolest heritage styles if you ask me, abiet dated.

Oh, and if the OVF's are HPS, then there's no chance the tear drops are LED. They haven't even been able to put a powerful enough LED set inside for a 250W HPS equivalent yet. and these high ones are 400W equivalents.

Yeah it pisses me off too, we have a huge tree decline here thanks to the Ice storm, EAB, Stressed trees, general tree removal, and suburbs. That little area is nice but its gonna be too busy soon and ugly.

Yeah likely HPS then for sure. I saw tonight the Richvale LED on the NE corner is out too lol.

I'm surprised they are HPS, but around here I still see new installations of legacy light sources also, even incandescent and metal halide.

Yeah I was hoping they would be LED. Even MH would be alright IMO. I dont like the yellow glow at night too much. Too much light pollution

Remember when I was pointing out how I'd like to see more NVN's on decorative arms? Just realized this a good example where I'd rather see big NVN's Agree with me on this one now? lol

Im in 100% agreement here with that one buddy lol. I would rather see something like you posted up on North Creditview rd by Wanless

I just noticed that infamous linesman's trademark of "the new droopy AE115 spot replacement" is photobombing on the left

OH, and this region now has streetview updates for June 2016!

Oh they're drooping the 115s now? Normally with the step-leveling slipfitter, the lineman jam the light onto the furthest block into the light, which makes the light tilt way up like a flood light lol.

Ive seen a bunch of new AE 115s over the last month or so. They arent drooping, its the opposite now.

Now that these regional roads are slated for LED changeover, let's see them try to find these repro's in 400W LED equivalent! Probably least threatened fixtures lol

When Markham converted to LED the streets with the coach lantern style fixtures remained HPS so I wonder if the repros will be LED'd. They do make these repros in LED so it might be a possibility.

If they decide to LED these, I really hope they won't cheap out and install shovels or 4000K LEDs, 3000K LED repro teardrops with real drop lenses are made and won't dramatically alter the appearance of the street. Plus you could pretend they're classic incandescents j/k.

I have only seen this teardrop repro as LED max 150W equivalent, and these suckers are 400W These were installed in 2015, so be a waste (like many of our cobras).

Unfortunately for you guys it looks like these arms are begging for black LED NVN or Autobahns to me

Yeah, I wasn't able to find a 400w equivalent repro teardrop. Holophane makes a 250w equivalent repro teardrop though.

Well, black is still better than using grey lights on these.

Those are LED models. They have a "stippled" plastic refractor that is nearly transparent.

Yeah I think the arms would scream for Black NVN's like this.

I like these .. but the black doesn't fit in with those poles
