Anybody know the cost of this lighting? I wish it could be permanent.

I had heard that they plan to make the lights part of the final memorial. That would be fitting.

Thanks for the pics. Fox News dude just said they're two beams of white light. They appear blue to me in the pictures. Is that just an illusion?

Re: They appear blue to me in the pictures. Is that just an illusion?

Good question. I'm not photographer, but I think the black background has something to do with them appearaing blue. The one picture that is shot from under the lights shows how white they really are.
