Any traffic lights like these in other parts of the USA?

I associate these light structures with 1970s commercial-district urban renewal programs.  They almost go hand-in-hand with streets closed to create pedestrian shopping districts.  They seem to say "Look, no more unwieldy, gangly mess of traffic light poles reminding us of unmanageable development chaos -- now it's neat and sleek, just like the future."

Once upon a time in the early 1980's, downtown Pittsburgh was to get these.

As did downtown Detroit (mostly gone) and downtown Cincinnati (still in use???)

Wichita, KS has these, too.

I've seen horizontal signals besides Little Rock, but the exact location escapes me at the moment.

Talk about an ancient quote, but this makes sense to me because I've only ever seen these in poor American cities.  Signals like this used to be in downtown Rockford, IL, but that's a memory from my childhood.  They've been replaced 10+ years ago IIRC.

Portland, Oregon is doing alright for itself, and it has them: https://goo.gl/maps/4xexgte8cfB2

Those are pretty quirky signals, but I don't think those are quite the same.

I believe those signals are only on streets that the MAX light rail or streetcars run on, possibly because most Portland mast arm assemblies have the lights located beneath the arms.
