There has been a lot of press lately about how the University of Virginia located in Charlottesville is finding ways to go green. In keeping with this increased eco-awareness they have found a way to reduce energy consumption while still keeping the annual light display on the lawn. Last night marked the lightning of the lawn and the traditional holiday lights have been replaced with LED lights which use less energy. The lawn consists of the area behind the Rotunda and it the origional area of the University built by Thomas Jefferson. The lights will be up throughout the Christmas season.
The pictures below show the Lawn. When you visit Charlottesville this is a must see.
The columns are wrapped with lights for Christmas; the lawn is beautiful any time of year.
