Sewell on street signs

Read more articles by

John Sewell writes in Eye this week about the erection of the re-designed street signs. Over the past year he has had a very difficult time getting City staff to answer some of his questions about the process and implementation of the street monikers. One of his central beefs with the signs is the lack of sophistication and elegance they possess. Also, the arrival of the new signs represent the removal of visual landmarks that remind us of our proud pre-amalgamated past.
