I love this sign so much. It reminds me of old-timey 3-D movie titles (below). And in the window above the new canopy is a swell “PCL” sign in neon. New windows and sturdy bike racks and tree guards (Steel Yard, natch) have really brightened up the Empire Street entrance. Can’t wait to see the interior.
