Help Repair and Update Historic Streetlights

The sanding and painting of Mariemont’s historic streetlights will be completed this summer as part of the Centennial projects. There are 109 historic streetlights scattered throughout the Village. Most are the traditional upright streetlights, but there also are 10 pendant style streetlights at the end of Miami Bluff and along West Street.

The Centennial Committee launched an “adopt a streetlight” campaign in early 2022. Individuals could adopt and designate a streetlight that would be sanded and repainted. To date 29 streetlights have been adopted and 22 of those streetlights have already been repainted.

Thank you to the following residents who have generously adopted a streetlight: Greg and

Wendy Long, Jordon Gaietto, Jeff and Lori Miller, Erica Noble, Bill and Karen Herkamp, Terry and Sandy Donovan, Cindy Chalfonte, Ed and Karen Berkich, Dave and Heather Rogers , Richard Ford, Judith Kagrise , Carrie and Rocky Ellis, Charlie and Grethen Thomas, Chris Laird and Sarah Innes, David C Waters, Friends Of Fieldhouse, Mia Williams, Ronn and Amanda Ross, Paul and Katie Mace, Jack Brown.

In January, Village Council appropriated permanent improvement funds to complete the painting of the remaining streetlights, but funds are still needed to replace damaged and faded lenses and to convert the lights to LED.
