Website Updates: More Signs (part 6)

The Reeves Drugs signs in Pulaski, TN were missing at StreetView — but I was able to poke around to discover they were restored in August. From Reeves FB page:

This sign in Whiteville, TN is gone now:

This sign in Nashville, TN is gone now. I doubt it was saved. The property is being developed for housing:

Oh no… this restaurant in Deland, FL closed last year and the sign had slipped about 2/3 the way down on the poles (storm damage?). It also looked bent where the arrow and the Restaurant panel met. I just found a real estate listing from 6 days ago that said the sign had been removed:

The sign originally advertised for Jack’s Boulevard Restaurant:

This sign was at Harvey’s Groves in Rockledge, FL. The citrus store closed in 2017 but this sign remained until last year when the entire building was demolished:

I did find this photo and info at the Florida Today newspaper saying that the sign is now in city storage and might be used in the future at the StorSafe self-storage business that is being built on the property:

Skycraft Surplus made the move from Winter Park, FL to Orlando, FL in 2021. The UFO that was over the entrance at the original location was restored and installed on top of the shopping center sign in Orlando. StreetView hasn’t been there yet but this photo from Skycraft’s website shows it right after it was installed in June:

This skeleton window sign in Allen Park, MI is gone now. A chain pharmacy is there now:

This sign in Ferndale, MI…:

… has been stripped and repainted for the Lotus Inn:

This sign in Kalamazoo, MI originally advertised for a restaurant:

… has been repainted for a brewery:

Well crap. I never got around to shooting this one in Pontiac, MI:

and now it’s been crapped up with plastic:

This beautiful sign in Saginaw, MI appears to be gone now. I don’t believe it’s at the Saginaw Old Town neon sign park, although they do have another nice Aubry Cleaners sign:

This parking sign in Saginaw was attached to a parking garage:

They leveled the parking garage for a parking lot but put the sign on a pole:

Top Cleaners in Utica, MI is gone now:

Here’s what the storefront looks like now:

This sign and building in Wayne, MI are gone now:

That’s it for Michigan. Eight more states to go in the Signs section. I’ll be back probably tomorrow with more.

Happy trails,
dj & the dogs
