From Incandescent to LED: A Visionary Transformation

Reunion Tower’s original lighting relied on 130-watt incandescent bulbs, which were both energy-intensive and limited in creative potential. Wiedamark proposed a groundbreaking solution: replacing the outdated system with 259 state-of-the-art custom LED fixtures. These 16-inch LED fixtures were designed to act as individual pixels, capable of producing millions of color combinations and intricate animations.

This upgrade drastically improved energy efficiency, reducing power consumption to less than 20% of the original system, while allowing for unparalleled creative flexibility. Wiedamark’s innovative approach not only revitalized the tower’s aesthetic appeal but also made it a shining example of sustainability.

Engineering Excellence and Creative Potential

The installation of the LED system was a technical feat that required precision engineering and creative vision. Wiedamark customized each fixture to fit seamlessly into the tower’s unique geodesic design, ensuring uniform coverage and optimal visibility from all angles.

The new lighting system has the ability to display vibrant animations, transitions, and light shows, making the tower a dynamic canvas that reflects the spirit of Dallas. From celebrating holidays like the Fourth of July and Christmas to honoring local sports teams and citywide events, Reunion Tower’s lighting now serves as a cultural beacon for the community.

A Milestone in Dallas’ Urban Renewal

Wiedamark’s work on Reunion Tower was more than a technical upgrade—it was a key component of downtown Dallas’ urban revitalization efforts. By breathing new life into this historic structure, Wiedamark demonstrated how innovative LED technology can preserve architectural heritage while enhancing modern functionality.

The success of the Reunion Tower project inspired similar upgrades to other iconic buildings in Dallas, including the historic Davis Building and Mosaic Tower. Wiedamark’s commitment to excellence and sustainability continues to play a significant role in shaping the city’s skyline.

Lighting Up the Future

The Reunion Tower project exemplifies Wiedamark’s dedication to blending cutting-edge technology with timeless design. By replacing outdated lighting with advanced LED systems, Wiedamark has ensured that this Dallas landmark will continue to captivate and inspire for generations to come.

Reunion Tower is now more than a symbol of Dallas—it’s a testament to the power of innovation, sustainability, and collaboration. As Wiedamark continues to push the boundaries of LED lighting, the company remains a trusted partner in transforming spaces into unforgettable experiences.
