City apparently selling these ornamental light poles on Cooper Square

Yesterday, EVG contributor Derek Berg noticed an electrician removing the handful of ornamental light poles that lined the west side of Cooper Square.

The worker said that the city was going to auction off the lights …



… which are no longer needed with the Cooper Square/Astor Place revamp … the area right here will be known as the Village Plaza — "Sunny, open plaza with diverse seating options and tree planting; serving both students and local residents."

What is their history/ When were these light poles installed and by whom?

Those lights are amazing, are they going to put up some sleek bullshit instead?
