I was in City Engineer Paul Brum's office when he was picking these "vintage-style" acorn street lamps from the OG&E catalog. At the time they were different for sure, and weren't to be found anywhere else. But now they're everywhere. Go to any cookie-cutter northwest OKC or Edmond neighborhood and you'll see these lights. You'll see them all over the suburbs. They say nothing about downtown OKC, and they've become quite suburban and ordinary. And do we really want all of downtown to be cast in a faux vintage design?
