LaSalle Hotel – Rooftop Sign,<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

South Bend, IN.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

When I was growing up in South Bend, I always remembered looking north on Michigan Street and seeing those signs atop the LaSalle Hotel, sitting at an angle so you could see them from blocks away in each direction. There were other businesses with similar signs, also perched atop their buildings visually crying out to potential customers. It just added to the nostalgia of the time.<\/p>\r\n

Those signs are no longer there and with my intent to bring back some of the old\u00a0nostalgic flavor of the city, I recreated the signs that overlooked the city.\u00a0 The Bendix Corporation, also in South Bend had a tower with the name spelled out vertically in lights.\u00a0 I included it in the picture, way off in the distance.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
