A MONUMENTAL
INFLUENCE

UNIQUE AND CHEAPER MATERIALS SUPPORT SIGNAGE LANDMARKS.

BY JOE HOLT

OU may not
have thought
about them
recently, but
you've definitely
found value
in monument
signs on a weekly, if not daily, basis.
Whether they're marking the edge of
a city or township, helping to distinguish and add an air of professionalism and permanency to a business,
or keeping visitors to a multi-tenant
property aware of important information and occupant changes,
monument signs inform, delineate
space and differentiate a property
in the marketplace.
Even in 2017, when you're traveling
to a place you've never been using

Y

GPS and a real-time mapping service,
you've most likely found yourself
looking for a monument sign to

indicate you're in the right place, or to
find the exact building you're looking
for. We rely on them and expect them
to aid in our journey.
Because of this, nearly all business
properties include some provision
regarding monument signs, and
within every state, city, county, or
particular property, there are rules
and regulations concerning sign
height, materials, build structure
and placement.
The following case studies represent
a small sampling of the types of monument signs that inform, delineate
space and differentiate a property
in the marketplace, as well as the
challenges signmakers faced in producing them around the country.
