If you look closely, the horizontal tracks are still there, and the placement of the two Coca Cola signs are exactly where the Dogs and Burger signs are. What might be interesting is if they can keep the font the same, but update the content to reflect the new owners, kind of like how the W Hotel did with the Guardian Life building in Union Square.neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04856163982742897562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-81468490190416675912011-05-10T16:53:05.655-07:002011-05-10T16:53:05.655-07:00It wasn't painted over.

In other words, maybe it's illegal to have a sign reading "Groceries & Deli" unless the business is, in fact, a grocery and deli.<br /><br />PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-40201442349610541582011-05-09T12:49:43.034-07:002011-05-09T12:49:43.034-07:00The old sign was great.

I think I've seen at least 3 or 4 fail there in the last 10 or so years. Then again Ted & Honey does a bang up business - but it's right next to the park.
