The Signal Station North Lighting Guidebook is a publication for anyone looking to learn more about light or to improve lighting in their neighborhood. The Guidebook offers lessons on neighborhood lighting, resources, and practical information on how light works, along with historical context and municipal case studies that offer a basic grounding on light in Baltimore and beyond.

Additional projects developed by the Signal Station North team include guerrilla lighting activations, community workshops and events, and three permanent lighting installations, which will be installed in the District in 2022. We hope that these demonstration projects and the Guidebook will be inspiration and tools for anyone looking to light up their neighborhood.
