Project Overview

In the heart of the District Wharf, Pearl Street Warehouse stands as a cultural destination blending live music, food, and nightlife. The architectural lighting design reflects this energy—vibrant, sophisticated, and unmistakably urban.

To define the building’s entrance and create a warm visual welcome, Belfer supplied MQ2502 Marquee Lighting – Wet Location fixtures installed beneath the exterior portico. These durable, precision-engineered fixtures provide both style and substance—delivering even illumination, visual rhythm, and reliability in an exposed outdoor setting.

Installed discreetly overhead, the MQ2502 units illuminate the entry canopy and reflect off surrounding surfaces, creating a bold yet inviting glow that echoes Pearl Street Warehouse’s lively character.

Lighting Design Impact

The MQ2502 fixtures transform the entrance into a focal point of light and texture. Their discreet housings accentuate the geometry of the portico while casting a warm, atmospheric glow that complements the warehouse’s brick and metal façade.

The lighting enhances the guest experience, guiding visitors toward the entry with an illuminated path that blends functionality, safety, and aesthetic expression—perfectly embodying the creative spirit of the Wharf district.
