Cincinnati City Hall Makes the Cover of LD+A
IESNA magazine features sustainable new LED lighting design, which has cut energy use by 84%
Montreal, Quebec
Lumenpulse's installation at Cincinnati City Hall has been featured on the cover, and in the pages, of LD+A, the magazine of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America. In a four-page article, Senior Associate Editor Samantha Schwirck cited the impact the new LED lighting design has had on the historic building, which is now leading a revival of the city's downtown.

Designed by Eco Engineering, the new lighting scheme at the Cincinnati City Hall replaced 1000W and 400W high-pressure sodium floodlights with sleeker, more sustainable Lumenbeam Xlarge and Grande luminaires. The switch reduced energy consumption by 84%, cutting over 265,000 pounds in annual carbon dioxide emissions.
"We did a one-for-one swap, but with the efficiency and distribution of the Lumenbeams, we could significantly reduce the total wattage. The savings are huge, but more importantly, the building has a whole new lease on life," said Matt Minard, lead engineer and designer at Eco Engineering.
