Lynn Lights

Lynn Lights is a project that resulted from collaboration between community members in Lynn, MA. Part of the Beyond Walls project, Lynn Lights was a pro-bono effort from MassDevelopment, Beyond Walls, and local design firms including Payette, Lam Partners, and Port Lighting Systems. Since 2016, the team has activated three of Lynn’s shadowy underpass spaces with dynamic LED lighting installations. The lighting has transformed those spaces from dark and dangerous to a visual representation of the city’s spirit and ambition.
