There is an old metal halide light fixture above each of the office 
balconies that I need to swap, one is going to be nightmare since the 
tenant built a meeting room up there.  And one in the outside overhang. 
And one in the southeast corner of the warehouse.  Four total.

There is no light fixture in the middle row above the staircase.  That 
would have made too much sense to put one in there.
