When you stroll down Market Street in Lewisburg, PA, you can't miss the stunning three-globe lamp posts that light your way. These cast iron beauties, first installed in 1912, are more than just streetlightsโthey're a symbol of our town's rich history and architectural heritage.
Originally produced by Westinghouse, the lamp posts were exclusively placed on Market Street. Although production stopped in the mid-20th century, the tradition lives on thanks to the Watsontown Foundry. Each lamp post is meticulously crafted and wired by Citizenโs Electric Company, ensuring that nearly 1500 of these landmarks continue to illuminate our streets.
Recognized far and wide, these lamp posts are a true emblem of Lewisburg. Miranda McGinnis, carrying her collectible tote bag adorned with the lamp post logo, once encountered a fellow Bucknell alum in Canterburyโa moment she and her late husband, Dick, cherished.
Celebrate the legacy of Lewisburg's lamp posts and their role in making our town a special place!
