LED video leader Lighthouse and TS Sports have installed indoor and outdoor LED video displays at US Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.Two exterior LED video building marquees, positioned on the northwest and northeast building facades, face Cedar Rapids' downtown freeway. Built with Lighthouse’s new 50mm outdoor oval LED video Bar, each measures 21' high by 42' wide.
