Pop open the base and unscrew the fuses that are in there?

The street lamps in New York have pigtail lampholders spliced in
there....with fuses. I guess removing those would disable the lamp.



No such luck. This particular lamp is a high pressure sodium type. No
obvious means of disabling it, plus I'm sure that though they've mostly
ignored me to this point, the power company would likely raise much hell if
I screwed with their equipment.

Does the light interfere with AM broadcast reception? A call to your
local AM broadcaster might get the right people involved.
