The Bay Bridge is set to shine again, starting in 2025, after a fundraising campaign by the nonprofit arts organization Illuminate brought in nearly $11 million to restart the art project.
The revamping of the Bay Lights public art installation dubbed The Bay Lights 360, will see both sides of the western span of the bridge illuminated, with more than double the number of LED lights compared to the original iteration. That will make the lights visible from all angles of the bridge, including from Treasure Island, Yerba Buena Island, Oakland , Berkeley and Emeryville.
We are thrilled to announce their return." Weather conditions, including the Bay's salty air, along with vibrations of the bridge that caused lights to move, forced the project to darken last year. The project was designed by artist Leo Villareal and was originally installed to mark the 75th anniversary of the Bay Bridge's opening and the Port of San Francisco's 150th anniversary. Preparations for installation on the 1.8-mile stretch of the bridge have begun.
