Can this be legal?
NOB HILL--I live a block and a half from this artificial sun. Whether it is a product of fusion or fission I do not know. It does cast quite a beam up at my house. It leaves a stronger shadow than the street light next door. Where is this high-powered, 10 million candle, acetylene torch that blots out everything within 2 blocks? STARBUCKS! That's where.
We, as a city, state, and nation are concerned about preserving the nightime sky from light pollution. The street lights only aim down to help with this problem. Also there is the neon, which looks a whole lot better without super-bright spotlights. Why has Starbuck's been allowed to dominate the whole neighborhood with this maddog parking lot fixture? Isn't this against some kind of zoning regulation?
