I am in Long Beach as I type this, lol. Form109, yes Norelco made fixtures in the 70s and the early-mid 80s. Norelco basically was the US division of Philips. The LPS here have since been replaced with HPS. A tiny handful of LPS remain.

Dave do you think you can make an exact shot of this what it looks like today...I LOVE "Before and AFter pictures"

I will need to ask Rick where this is, Long Beach is a big city and I can't just go out and find this spot, lol.

I am looking west on Stearns st at Bellflower Bl. The poles, wires and building are gone, as they re-done the Los Altos shopping center.

That shall be interesting...I have a good picture of before and after in Annapolis and same for NYC! So I am very interested! I would assume traffic light one is still there? or a new traffic light pole?

Jace I will find that spot tomorrow! Stay tuned. BTW there's an older strip mall on Bellflower kinda near here with sharkfin Ovalites.

I found this exact location, the old poles are still there but now have M250A2s, 150w HPS. The traffic lights have since been replaced.
