Is that on Orange? You might as well not put anything up if you make it that small.

I've been noticing signage is just terrible in Orlando, especially with new construction. Often in the worst spots, and tiny or behind trees capes. 

Thank the Zoning Dept and probably the DDB as well. They're real jerks when it comes to signage. They seem to think that if they allow signage that is actually interesting and can actually be seen, it will somehow defile the purity and sacredness of downtown.

It's in the neon museum cache in wp.

I know how that happened because it's happened to me so many times.

Inasmuch as a picture is worth a thousand words, please allow me to illustrate....

The reason that happens is because of these overly (and unnecessarily) long thread titles that push the current page number link down into a second row that you tend not to notice. Your eyes intuitively go to the last page number link on the same line as the title because that's what they're used to doing.

I hate when that happens.

Speaking of SoDo and the plethora of hotels popping up, here’s the one sunshine can’t wait for a local version of:

Thank you JFW. I am sure it is my fault, not the site. 

 

Also, 

Taco Bell!

To hang out and enjoy a good sign or two.

You mean I've been shopping during odd off-peak hours for no reason? lol The last time I inquired there (about a year ago) they hadn't started the pickup service yet. I cannot stand Walmart crowds...

From permits:

Interior alteration of cash register lanes and bullpen of self-checkout and addition of check-in, waiting and storage area as well as interior finish modifications.

 

Looks like you aren’t the only one that doesn’t want to stay to hang with the locals.
