On a recent stay in Singapore, I noticed from my hotel room window, a bright, flashing video screen in the distance. It was about a mile away in a different section of town, but it 's flashing brilliance ruined the early morning quiet.

I don't suppose that the proposed giant video screen at the Boston Garden would have run all night long, but when it did shine, it would have been an eyesore for that part of town. I think it's good that it didn't go through.
