Lighting will continue nightly from sundown until 10pm

The PG&E Substation, built in 1973, will serve as the canvas for this stunning projection. The building, known for its massive, brawny structure accentuated by subtle curves and a monochromatic façade, will be transformed nightly from sundown until 10 PM. The projection, measuring 25 feet wide and 114 feet tall, will be a collaboration with A3 Visual, a renowned projection company with a portfolio that includes high-profile events like Chase Center displays and SF’s Down “Let’s Glow” winter light show.
