Hi! I know the head of the parks department for nyc and personally am on a board for the new skate park being built eventually under the expressway. There is allocated funds for lights on the other ones but it’s behind the projects that they haven’t broke ground on yet. The reason why to they took them away in the 90s was to prevent a lot of activity in night at these places. I’ve seen fights, bikes stolen, boards stolen. Just in les and a few others at night alone. So, if you’re wondering why it’s because a lot of teens, young adults travel in groups and cause problems. That’s not to say there’s not a lot of great skaters practicing but there is a lot of crime even with it being on light. They even damn near almost beat up jaden smith when practicing for that 90s movie and jaden said something like “ya they went to punch me and missed and said oh shit it’s jaden smith) if that helps for better understanding. I used to work at zumiez and have watched these groups personally try to grab 20+ boards and other things so I can’t imagine what an every day is like for the bunny heads. Heartbreaking.

Edit you’re looking at the lights for 2025+

Hello! I was talking about Greek Lettering but I would love to type out a longer explanation for this but no time tbh. Modern day English is very influenced by such a thing between Greeks and Hindus already. Just in the Letter G contains the alpha and the omega thing but also covered a lot of the Hindu thing. The beliefs of Breath is Gods and that Fire Breath or the Word is God is a very big combo of both words in multiple languages today that were inspired by a combo of the two. Many colors we see today and their words go back to this antiquity. Purple was based both on the smashing of bits of shells to make a color (blue to red to purple) (story of aprhodite and the shading of shiva to kali with Vishnu in middle making the purple) there are many fine examples in your day to do that include buddhistic teachings however I will say. All of Buddha and Hindu sculpture making started because of them. The main goal before then was to die like Buddha and be cast in gold. You become the Buddha Statue. This is a similar practice to some done on a Saturnalia festival tradition to Bodhi day or enlightenment day to Christmas
