New lights are illuminating a downtown Saskatoon alley. The programmable fibreglass mesh light ”orbs” are on the back of the Hotel Senator and the side of O’Shea’s Irish Pub. Together, these light up the back alley south of 21st Street East between 2nd and 3rd Avenues South. Each orb has LED lighting with an infinite number of programming options which will keep the light display fresh throughout the year.

The lights were made possible through funding from Downtown Saskatoon (Business Improvement District) as well as local business and property owners. In addition to adding some colour, the lights should make the area feel safer and more inviting.
