McGraw Edison Unistyle 175 175 watt mercury vapor (replaced in 2015)
As of 2012, this was the last remaining mercury vapor street light on Saxonburg Blvd. Most of the street lights in Indiana Township, PA were mercury vapor until the township decided to have their lighting changed to high pressure sodium and as a result, 95% of the mercury vapor street lights in this area were replaced with high pressure sodium street lights in 2007. This light was supposed to be replaced in 2007, but Duquesne Light let it be. It was last relamped in 2008 and after it went out again in 2015, it was replaced with a 100 watt high pressure sodium street light.
