WN is pleased to have played a pivotal role in updating The Seattle Star for 2020 and beyond. We refurbished this iconic work of public art by replacing many of its worn-out components, replaced over 4,000 incandescent bulbs with new individually programmable LED nodes, and ensured that this nostalgic structure will endure for many holidays to come.

We’re bringing some life back to downtown and the building and the community,” Brenneke said, “and maybe creating something fun in all these times.
