As long as more gems are not destroyed for those signs/lights, I'm am OK with it. However, there are plenty of dull modern buildings in NYC that could do with enlivening with lights.

I agree. I don't have a problem with lights/signage. It's a characteristic of the streets of New York. Broadway is Broadway. They should extend the signage from 59th to 34th at least. It's New York, the Big City. There should be lights. One street out of 300+ square miles is not a lot. Not even a lot for Manhattan alone, with its many streets and avenues known around the world. But like I said, Broadway is Broadway. More lights please.
