They replaced the old lighting with white LEDs on my block a couple months ago.<p>First off, it actually makes it MORE difficult to see (now that the trees have leaves) than the orange light did. The LEDs are so much brighter that the contrast makes the shadows even deeper than they used to be, and your eyes can&#x27;t see anything that&#x27;s in shadow.<p>Secondly, it makes it much more difficult to sleep. My windows are ABOVE the lights (which face downwards), and it&#x27;s like trying to sleep in daylight. I can&#x27;t imagine what it&#x27;s like on the floors below. My sleep has definitely suffered.
