Lamp for sidewalk too = good.

Had to dig around but I believe this is what they are supposed to look like

Hopefully my pics are a bit clearer than Cold's!

[Black Star]

Nice looking. Modern and not 1 but 2 lamps.

Gawd we have to ditch those 10 ton trash receptacles.

[Hardhatdan]

Pretty nice. I dunno about 36month lead time nice...

^ That doesn't really look like the design from the COE website I posted earlier in #4382

But it exactly matches the actual pole. Your post is not the right design and thank goodness that's such a 90s design.

[Hallsy's Toupee]

OK good to know. So it was reverse value engineered?

So we are not getting 3 poles or a second light? Or is the second light still be added on what has been installed? I liked the ones we were supposed to be getting in this design that Hallsy posted. Did we get a savings cutting out the 3rd pole?

[Coldrsx]

... That third 'tusk' was/is the issue.

The base doesn't match the footings. The lights would have looked better if they were made of stainless steel.

I f*ckin HATE those receptacles. They bug me so much.

[Hallsy's Toupee]

I thought those horrid trash bins were replaced during the streetscaping from 3 years ago?

This. This. This.

[s4.audios]

The 70's called, they said they don't want their trash cans back.

[Coldrsx]

Worst trash cans in history. Please at the very least replace them with those 1990s looking capitals.

[Threlc]

They have replaced a lot of them, with the black metal ones that have a loose ring at the top. But you can still see the stoneware along Jasper.

p.s. I like the look of the actual posts, assuming the small bar over the sidewalk is a light, a lot more than the prototype. The fin just...I don't know.

Could they have ditched the pedestrian light and now it is just an extension to hang banners on and the like?

That is not what was the result of the community consultation process. Nor was the current design vetted with the public. A change has been made and the City has not explained why - and they should. Did the original supplier go into receivership? What is the basis for the decision to go with these poles (which look silly on the bases they are on). Frankly, as is - I am concerned the City is "at is again" screwing things up - even the most simple.
