I agree, this is something that is a lot easier to not let happen in the first place, than to change after the fact. My least favorates are the big industrial floodlights on the OG side of the Casino, where they clash with the boardwalk lights and the parking lot style lights along the AP boardwalk, can't something a little less tall and bright be put up along there, and not the new style lights that have been installed along the streets, something more in keeping with the early 20th century era of the CH and Casino. Have not noticed the Berk light, but I'm over in OG, so maybe it's not pointed our way!! I'm not so worried about the lights in the parking lots, I'm hoping they are just temporary.
