White Plains Sta­tion is a com­muter rail stop on the Metro-North Railroad’s Harlem Line, located in White Plains, New York. It is the third largest in the Metro- North Rail­road system, with more than 87 mil­lion pas­sen­gers riding annu­ally. A recent state-of-the-art $95 mil­lion upgrade was com­pleted which included new ameni­ties such as Wi-Fi and cel­lu­lar con­nec­tiv­ity and USB charg­ers on benches. Metro-North’s Sta­tion began the three-year long ren­o­va­tion in 2018, as a way to bring a more cus­tomer friendly atmos­phere for com­muters. The project refur­bished the station’s main entrance at the sta­tion plaza, the Main Street entrance, the Hamil­ton Avenue entrance, and the Mott Street tunnel. The sta­tion was remod­eled with a modern aes­thetic, includ­ing updated sig­nage, a widened main lobby, new ele­va­tor, and new and improved light­ing. ​“Upgrad­ing our trans­porta­tion hubs to meet the demands of the 21st cen­tury is fuel­ing the eco­nomic come­back that we need today and will help keep New York’s econ­omy com­pet­i­tive in the future,” said Kathy Hochul, Gov­er­nor of New York.

Selux light­ing was used through­out this project. M125 LED linear light­ing was used on the inte­rior and exte­rior through­out White Plains Sta­tion. It was the per­fect choice because M125 LED offers safe, effi­cient light­ing with its high-impact and access pro­tec­tion to IP65 and IK10 stan­dards. M125 LED is made for the harsh envi­ron­ments and was designed with vandal, tamper, and impact resis­tance in mind. Selux Arca was used on the exte­rior, on and around the train plat­form. This sleek and min­i­mal­is­tic path­way area lumi­naire is equipped with the pro­pri­etary Gen5 optics, giving the sta­tion path a com­fort­able appear­ance and opti­mal spread­ing of light.
