Super light display going up downtown

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - A super light display is taking shape downtown.

The interactive show will transform Georgia Street for visitors and the home crowd during Super Bowl XLVI festivities. You'll find it in the Super Bowl Village. The light display is just the latest addition to be added to Georgia Street and Super Bowl Village. When the project is all complete, more than 150 moving lights will put on a show.

"To see this is really something," said Barbara Roberts, Indianapolis, said of the lights, shining and moving Monday night.

People stopped and gazed; some even took pictures at the lights along Georgia Street.

"We think it's cool," said Mychael Gordon, Indianapolis.

Dodd Technologies, a Pendleton company, was hired to install the lights in Super Bowl Village.

"It will be very interactive; it will be a whole new downtown," said Andy Meggenhofen, chief lighting director and producer with Dodd.

He said his crew is responsible for transforming Georgia Street and Super Bowl Village with the light show.

"We're doing a lot with the host committee. A lot of the structures - and we'll have lights over all of the buildings down here for the next two weeks," he said.

Monday on Georgia Street, crews were testing out the lights. Not only will they move up and around on the buildings, they will also be programmed to do a lot more.

"They'll change colors, put shapes up. They will be synchronized with a pyro show ever night. They'll be interactive with the stages, with the band with music going on as well," Meggenhofen said.

"It's beautiful. I'm mean, it's really an improvement of what it was," said Roberts, who brought her grandchildren to see the display.

One of them, William Gordon, was amazed at what the lights show could do.

"They go around on buildings, and it's very pretty," he said.

But the local company wasn’t chosen just because it’s local.

"We do this all over the world," Meggenhofen said.

Crews with Dodd Technologies will be back downtown Tuesday. They plan to install more lights on the top of Pan Am Plaza.
