I realize LEDs have better color rendering, are more efficient, and are generally safer for pedestrians and drivers as street lighting. I get all that.
but you can not tell me sodium vapor lights aren't more aesthetically pleasing, and it is for this reason I will be sad to see them slowly disappear.

They also don't hurt your night vision the moment you leave their light unlike the white light.

What’s a sodium sunset?

It's the sodium vapor lamps that look like the setting sun.

I dont know why but ive always loved sodium lamps. Especially in tunnels, stairwells and parking garages.
