The Beautiful Bay Lights




The Bay Bridge, so long in the shadows of her glamorous sister the Golden Gate Bridge, has come into her own with a dazzling, shimmering display of lights.

The Bay Lights LED installation on the San Francisco Bay Bridge officially came to life on Tuesday night, March 5, 2013. 25,000 individually controlled lights form patterns programmed by video artist Leo Villareal.

The lights were discontinued for awhile, but they're soon to be back in 2016-- by popular demand.
