The Hillcrest Sign repairs are underway!

Hillcrest Sign repairs, Feb 6, 2006California Neon came out this morning to repair the beloved neighborhood sign.
The center lane eastbound was closed at University and Fifth avenues for a few
hours while the worker removed one of the transformers. It takes four of them to
keep our landmark sign lit. Wet winter weather usually causes problems, but the
with only 1.42″ of rain falling over the last ten months, the neon experts are scratching
their heads. After weeks of seeing only “HILL” glowing to the east, the Hillcrest BID
Executive Director Warren Simon says the “CREST” should be lit again soon.
