American 3-Way Systems Light The Dark Places
    Dark cellars, basements, and vaults can so easily and so economically daylighted, transforming them into productive space for display and selling, that there is no good reason why every building should not be so arranged. Underground space that now is dark, gloomy and disagreeable is rendered light and attractive by the use of 3-WAY sidewalk lights. But by daylighting we do not mean just the lighting of a little spot under the sidewalk--light the whole front of the room and light it brightly so that it can be put to any use that you may desire.
    Probably the greatest advantage in daylighting your basement with our sidewalk lights is the cost of artificial light. With our system the saving in artificial light cost alone should pay for the installation in a very short time.
    The American 3-Way Prism Company's system of daylighting is designed to transmit light to the dark places in basements. And because of our long experience we know that there is scarcely a cellar lighting problem that is not solved by one of our constructions.
    If you are erecting a new building do not overlook the big advantage in having the basement flooded with daylight for it gives space, that is usually dedicated to storage, to use as work rooms or as sales rooms.
Sidewalk Space at No. 1 Wall Street, New York
Sidewalk Space at No. 1 Wall Street, New York, Lighted with 3-Way System and used as an Art Gallery.
More space to use and that at less expense is the result of the installation of the American 3-WAY Prism Company's sidewalk lighting systems.
    Lofts and attics that are now indifferently lighted by small inefficient skylights can be redeemed and made to earn their share in the returns from the building if the lighting area is enlarged and equipped with our system of daylighting.
Here is space that will bring you in a profitable rental, either in money or use.
    Perhaps your building is an old one and you have outgrown the selling space on th first floor or you could rent the basement if it were daylighted. Make this space pay you a profit by installing American 3-WAY Sidewalk Lights.
    The returns are so large in proportion to the cost that there is no other investment in the entire building that will prove as profitable as the daylighting of the basement.
Economical and highly effective, our skylight construction will in a very short time pay for itself in saving in light bills as well as the increase in returns from space made more valuable by the increase in the light. So accurately and carefully are our skylight constructions made that, under repeated tests they have proven strong enough to carry many times the load that might put on them in actual use.
