Why do you think anyone would come to Lowell to see some lit up smokestacks? Any money would be far better spent funding the arts or education for residents.

Art is the handmaid of human good.
It would be beautiful, it would reflect off the Merrimack, the lighting could be an event like Christmas Tree lightings are many places.
People love things like this, there are the Ice palace lights, the zoo lights, there is the 200 xmas tree display in Medford annually, the Boston common tree lighting, Rockefeller center, etc
Why not spend it on schools? Because our schools are well funded, not every dollar should be spent on utility.
This is funding the arts.
