North Star's Palladium lighting fixtures chosen for new $600 million 29-story Caesars Palace Tower

North Star Lighting announced today that its Palladium lighting fixtures are being used to illuminate the new $600-million 29-story Palace Tower expansion at Caesars Palace, and adds a dramatic, classically-inspired Landmark to the Las Vegas skyline.

The Palace Tower more than doubles Caesars Palace guest capacity to 2,471 total room/suites, and is all part of the new and emerging Las Vegas as a first class resort destination with something for everyone in the family. Las Vegas attracted over 30 million visitors last year, and today is only second to Walt Disney World as the favorite vacation destination in the United States.

"North Star specifically designed the Palladium fixtures to meet the highly sophisticated lighting requirements demanded by this showcase facility", says Jeff Sanders, National Account Manager at North Star Lighting.

North Star's Palladium fixtures at the Palace Tower employ GE ConstantColor CHM lamps. These lamps provide consistent color uniformity and excellent color rendering, and ensure precise optical control to deliver a concentrated beam of light where it is needed.

In addition, Palace Tower respects the technological leadership and innovation which GE and North Star represent, and that's important both for aesthetic appeal and ease of maintenance which are critical to complimenting and preserving this Greco-Roman masterpiece.

"Coupling the Palladium and GE ConstantColor CHM capabilities opens endless possibilities for fresh and unique lighting approaches for virtually any application while insuring ease of maintenance and outstanding performance", says Greg Dore, Manager, Marketing Support at GE Lighting.

North Star develops and manufactures lighting products to meet the lighting industry's exacting performance and safety specifications for major sport stadiums, and commercial and industrial applications.

While it's easy to tell North Star's growth story, we prefer to let our customers speak for our ability to deliver outstanding results. In addition to the Palace Tower, North Star's recent commercial and industrial solutions in Las Vegas include the MGM Grand and the Mirage Resort's new $1.3 billion Bellagio Hotel.
