About Us

In January 2006, Acuity Brands Lighting embarked on a bold and exciting new direction focusing on the lighting community in the Metro New York City area.  The goal was simple: Deliver an outstanding customer experience by providing tremendous value and service to the metro New York City lighting and controls communities.

We began by assembling the finest talent available in the lighting industry.  Acuity Brands believes we’ve succeeded - our New York City staff delivers outstanding service to our customer base to satisfy all their lighting and control needs.  We also focused on providing the industry with a space.  We wanted more than just an “office” in Manhattan; we wanted our location to benefit and represent the lighting community at large.

In April 2008, we opened the Center for Light+Space (CL+S), a 17,000 square foot facility located in mid-town Manhattan.  CL+S was designed to house our professional staff and to offer a remarkable asset to the lighting and controls community through the provision of:

        ·         Educational programs and resources
·      Functions and events
·         Meeting and conference facilities
·         Project and product demonstration space 

All these benefits are available to the community at no charge.  We encourage you to not only participate in our events but to also make use of this facility for your organization's benefit.

In February of 2009, CL+S was awarded LEED Gold certification from USGBC, proving our dedication to the concerns of our community.

We are far from finished.  As our industry grows, we plan to grow along with it.  Through simple facility alterations or installations, along with program creation and development, our ongoing mission is to provide our industry with the greatest resources and assets available in the New York City market.
