No, I think it looks great. It brings LIFE to our wonderful downtown.

I believe it is out of place in downtown. It completely does not fit the wonderful architecture of those beautiful old buildings downtown.

I am a proponet for creating a fun and lively downtown, but not if it is full of flashing billboards and looks like Vegas. That is definitely not what we want.

I like it and im a frequent visitor the new and improved downtown nightlife. And its doesn't look out of place. What would be there if the electronic sign were removed. Nothing, right. Having a the sign with the business that it brings is good for our downtown. I would prefer having it there versus having a vacant empty building. It wasn't that long ago people. Times are changing and we must be willing to evolve with change to ensure that our city and its legacy has a chance to prosper.

And what if someone said this about Times Sqaure in NY? Seems a bunch of busy bodies that don't go downtown when its dark enough to notice. Leave the sign for its unique character and draw.

This is not Times Square - It was in violation for advertising off premise events - it was identified as a problem immediately after the billboard went up on the building. People bring a downtown to life - not electronic billboards.

Ummmm... hello? Who cares about the billboard, have you ever been inside that place? It is shocking some of the stuff that goes on in there.
