A hot Fourth of July, 2002. The temperature is over 95 degrees Fahrenheit (over 35 degrees Celsius).

Two years later, the new signals are in operation. These views, looking north, empahsize the color scheme of the new signals: yellow signal heads, suspended on wires mounted from dark green poles. The pedestrian signals are dark green in color, and use international symbols. At left, you can even see an old street light fixture dating from the 1930s with a GE-style lamp mounted on it.
