A largely empty building is to host a £50,000 light show.
The 18 storey glass fronted Centre North East building in the centre of Middlesbrough only has two tenants.
But the entire 220ft high skyscraper - the tallest office complex in the North-East - will be lit up this evening in what organisers say is one of the most exciting and innovative public art projects in the region and a dramatic addition to the Teesside skyline.
The cost of the project is being met through a mixture of public and private money.
The man responsible for the light show, artist Ron Haselden joined Coun Ken Hall, Speaker of Middlesbrough Council and invited guests for last night's launch of the scheme.
