In my travels I notices most of not all of the city streetlights are off in the Newtown, Carver, and Diamond. All of the houses have lights on. It the streets are dark. Anyone have any idea why?

I gotcha, my theory was to reduce power consumption to help offset people needing to use heaters more. I was more so hoping I wasn't just Imagining the lights being out

They are out from jackson ward to the museum district, though in patches. My streetlights are out but I have power.

I noticed all the houses had power but people don't use porch lights much anymore so the streets are really dark w/o the street lights. Do you know if they're out in the Fan too?

I am pretty sure, at least in parts of the fan.

The street lights go out occasionally. Word is the street lights power comes from church hill. Usually there is no discernible reason for them to be out. Usually back on in several hours

In parts of The Fan as well. I noticed that the lights came on sometime late night and were still on this morning so my theory is that the timer got screwed up.
