SAN FRANCISCO -- On Saturday, locals and tourists alike were taking photos with the Bay Lights as the backdrop.
For the last decade, the lights have served as a glittering display on the bay, visible from both sister restaurants Epic Steak and Waterbar on the Embarcadero, managed by Pete Sittnick. Davis said the current system of LEDs is failing at a rate faster than can be repaired. Parts of it are flickering and balding. A new system with double the amount of LEDs would be custom engineered to perform in the harsh environmental conditions of the bay.
