We've done signs, interchanges, signals, how about photos of old street lights?

Here's some that I have for now:

A picture of a old (presumably mercury vapour) clamshell or rounded style streetlight near the intersection of ON 48 and Stouffville Road.

A string of some old style fluorescent tube style streetlights near Newmarket Ontario:

And finally a closeup on one of the fluorescent lighting fixtures:

I've seen low pressure sodium at the top end of I-495 around Boston.

There's also low pressure sodium in Safford, AZ on really neat poles here (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=safford+az&sll=53.800651,-4.064941&sspn=20.193763,56.90918&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Safford,+Graham,+Arizona,+United+States&ll=32.834957,-109.727883&spn=0.013594,0.035963&z=16&layer=c&cbll=32.834954,-109.728077&panoid=xg_9_cHeWQYm5NEBqyWQiA&cbp=12,277.42,,0,-8.59).
