The laboratories

Can the national laboratories be visited? I think that should be addressed somewhere in the article. If they can be, they should have "See" listings. Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:08, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

I don't think Sandra is, but Lawrence has a "discovery center" [1] outside the actual facility that appears oriented to school field trips but open to anyone. They also do site tours [2] on Tuesday mornings with reservations. JakeOregon (talk) 05:03, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Boomers Removal?

Boomers is part of a chain, right? Selfie City (talk) 04:20, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

Banner

This article currently uses the same banner as Del Valle Regional Park, and the banner has the wrong dimensions. If I understand correctly, the banner is a photo of Del Valle Regional Park. Is that right? If so, I think we should crop the banner and use it for the park article, and find a different banner for this article. —Granger (talk · contribs) 03:55, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

Seeing no response, I've cropped the banner for Del Valle Regional Park and removed it from this article. —Granger (talk · contribs) 13:45, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

The current placement of these page banners is perfectly fine. Thanks --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 20:01, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

Clarification on Centennial Light

I think the Centennial Light listing needs some practical details. Google Maps seems to indicate the lightbulb is in a fire station – is that right? Is it open to visitors regularly, and if so, what are the hours? Pinging @SelfieCity: who I remember is familiar with this region. —Granger (talk · contribs) 16:52, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi User:Mx. Granger, and thanks for asking! This is correct; the lightbulb is currently in a fire station. I've heard it talked about often locally, but I have never visited the fire station myself. According to the Visit Tri Valley website, "Visitors are welcome to visit the Livermore Fire Station No. 6 and view it themselves depending on the availability of the firemen on hand. Simply go to the rear of the station and ring the bell for assistance." However, the website link to a webcam is clearly out of date, so I don't know how current or accurate the information is that has been provided. --Comment by Selfie City (talk) (contributions) 18:44, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, that's really useful (and the webcam seems to be working for me). I'll add a bit of that information to the article. —Granger (talk · contribs) 03:08, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
