I would love to see Sacramento's premier city photographer (ahem Mike) contact the city of Sacramento and West Sacramento, to arrange for the city (and all the buildings with ornamental lighting), to be illuminated one night a year, in order to be photographed for CVB or postcards whatever..

Cal EPA
Ziggurat
Robert Matsui Federal Courthouse
Meridian I
1201 K street
Wells Fargo
Esquire Building
Plaza Park Tower (aka U.S. Bank Tower)
621 Capitol Mall (aka the future U.S. Bank Tower)
and soon 500 Capitol Mall (aka Bank of the West Tower)

What a picture that would make.. A picture the city could use to market the city and downtown..

(Mike, Rob are you guys listening?)

Sacramento's nightime skyline will truly be one of the most striking of any California city (despite it's modest density and height)..

It's just a shame the state refuses to illuminate Cal EPA and the Ziggurat.
