Fascinated By The Rooftop YMCA Sign

April 13, 2013 Downtown, Featured, Planning & Design 1 Comment

I’m a fan of high quality signage, especially neon letters. Living where I do I frequently see the YMCA letters on top of the downtown Y at 1528 Locust (map).

The YMCA sign at 16th & Locust last weekend

Last weekend I snapped the pic above while waiting for the St. Louis Marathon runners to pass mile 6. Have a great weekend!
