Little Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree

It was a foggy night, but that didn't do much to diminish the bright lights of the Christmas tree set up along Capitol Avenue in downtown Little Rock.

The tree sits next to a sculpture called "Helios," which features this sphere at the top. The lights of the tree looked kinda neat reflected in the sphere.

The tree sits at the intersection of Main and Capitol Streets. It was a bit brighter there this year, thanks to multiple lights in the windows of the Boyle Building. The 12-story building was constructed in 1909 and was the tallest building the in the state for a few years. But for the past few decades it had been left empty, until the state recently purchased it and started renovations. It'll soon be home to offices for the state Attorney General, and if there is anyone from that office reading this I would love to have access to the roof to take pictures anytime y'all would want to open it up for visitors. Please and thank you!
