Moonlight Tower

I recently listened to a 99% Invisible podcast about the old moonlight towers that lit the streets in the 1800s. The only remaining ones in the United States are in Austin, TX. I found the old blueprints for the towers and wanted to create a piece inspired by them.

I've actually seen the Moonlight Tower in Zilker Park, it's such a cool part of history. If you're around Austin you should definitely find one. Until then, check out the 99% Invisible podcast: http://99percentinvisible.org/episode/under-the-moonlight/
