Lighting
Light fixtures on the exterior of a building serve to illuminate the face of the building, highlight the storefront and the merchandise within, identify the entrance and provide the finishing touches to the design.

Recommended
• Retain historic light fixtures. If modification of the building is required to accommodate new energy requirements, it should be done with the least intrusion to the original character of the fixture.
• Replace fixtures with unobtrusive styles, concealing the light source to minimize glare and direct the light to the building.
• Add lighting to both the interior and exterior of storefronts.
