Sound & Light Show Fixture UpgradeDuring the recent restoration of the Peace Tower and Centre Block of the Canadian Parliament Buildings, the decision was made to replace and up-grade all of the Sound and Light show fixtures located on the front facade of the buildings. The replacement took place in conjunction with the restoration work. New lighting brackets were designed and all exterior light fixtures replaced to blend seamlessly with the historic building.
