Vancouver's iconic art deco Burrard Bridge is open, and .
That is to say, the Bridge has been outfitted with reproductions of its original 1930s lighting, with the modern bonus of being able to configure the LED lights for multiple colour schemes.
Part of the historic crossing鈥檚 original 1930-32聽Sharp & Thompson design, the concrete lamp standards, bronze light fixtures, and sconces, were removed in the 1960s, according to聽Heritage 麻豆传媒映画Society.
The City of 麻豆传媒映画was initially not going to restore the lighting system, but ultimately they did opt to go ahead and replicate it, putting the reproduced cement lamp standards and sconces not only back, but also back in their original positions.
To show off the Bridge's new look and colourful lights, the City invited the public to take a gander at the lit up Burrard Bridge Wednesday night.
There鈥檚 going to be even more of a restored light show on the art deco Burrard Bridge when the City of 麻豆传媒映画completes the installation of the brazier lighting, which will look like a 鈥渇lickering fire鈥� at both ends of the bridge鈥檚 entrances.
The brazier lights and simulated flame are to honour Canadian soldiers; they will be ready to go for Remembrance Day 2017.
Check out some photos shared online of the Burrard Bridge's new night lights:
