Whether on the daily commute, or returning home from a long trip - there’s a sense of relief that comes to mind when passing one of these all too familiar signs. Even in their most basic form, green text over white boards remind us of all the genius of “The Telephone City”. In-between these signs, the pulse of over 100,000 people.
