Bertelsmann Building, C'est Moi

(in context)

Some may know this building as the Virgin Store, some as the Loews State, and some as Bar Code or Planet Hollywood.

But, thanks to a vibrant new paint job on the lettering shown here (old hard-to-spot green lettering shown for comparison at lower left), more may realize that somewhere behind all that other stuff is the actual Bertelsmann Building

... It seems like the sign is using some kind of red neon strip lighting along the lower edge, which used to be green -- can they change the color of the laser that shoots through it?
