As people around the world mourn the death of pop icon Prince, several cities decided to light up landmarks and monuments in purple, his signature color.
San Francisco City Hall
Mercedes-Benz Superdome (New Orleans, LA)
The Orlando Eye
Los Angeles City Hall
The High Roller at the LINQ Promenade (Las Vegas, NV)
Baltimore City Hall

The Captial Wheel (National Harbor, MD)
The Chicago Skyline
The Forum (Inglewood, CA)
The Omni Hotel in Dallas
Of course Prince’s hometown of Minneapolis came through with the I-35W Bridge,
The Lowry Avenue Bridge,
And Target Field
Niagara Falls was also lit up in purple lights; however, it was originally lit up for Queen Elizabeth’s 90th birthday. Later on, organizers recognized the purple lights for both the Queen AND Prince.
As we all take a moment to reflect on Prince and the significant impact he had on all of our lives, it’s nice to see cities around our country doing the same. #RIPPrince #PurpleforPrince
