Noribachi Completes LED Lighting Upgrade for Manhattan Beach

Noribachi has completed an expansive lighting improvement project for the City of Manhattan Beach, California.

One of L.A.’s chic ocean front cities, Manhattan Beach draws tens of thousands of visitors annually to its waterfront attractions. Noribachi replaced the fluorescents with the popular LOWBAY vapor proof fixture. The new lights use about half of the energy while emitting a much brighter, cleaner light. Inside the parking structure this translates into an increased feeling of security and heightened color perception, making it easier for drivers to locate their vehicles.


Lining Manhattan Beach Boulevard, the City’s main thoroughfare, are historic lantern fixtures that also required an LED upgrade. This application demanded a retrofit of the lantern fixture to maintain the original aesthetics. In order to achieve this Noribachi created a custom LED solution designed to easily sit in the existing housing. Noribachi’s experience in diffusion allowed engineers to direct the light straight down inside of the existing lens, creating a glowing effect and shielding the individual diodes from view. Noribachi also used LEDs with a warm white color temperature to match the historic ambiance.

 “The City was able to complete this LED installation through the use of grant funding from the Department of Energy, and this project fits in nicely with the City’s goals to be more energy efficient and reduce its carbon footprint 15% below 2005 levels by 2020,” notes Sona Kalapura, Environmental Programs Manager for the City of Manhattan Beach.
