TORONTO Pan Am Sign

[W. K. Lis]

After this year, 2015, and after the Parapan Am and Pam Am Games, the TORONTO sign may go on a "tour" of Toronto. Where do you like to see it?

NPS.

I would like to see it on top of the cliff on The Queensway north of the Gardiner Express, west of Roncesvalles.

Vertically attached to the side of the CN Tower. Nothing else will do....except leaving it where it is.

 

[Videodrome]

It should go in front of Deco headquarters.

It should go in front of Deco headquarters.

Only if it spells CRACK in the same font.

I'd like to see it in front of the hydro-pole NIMBY's house.

To me, there's only one Pan Am sign that mattered

 

[Johnny Au]

Perhaps on the unoccupied part of Davenport Hill. The Toronto sign would very well be our equivalent of the Hollywood sign.

QQ & Yonge, so it'll reflect on the water and you'll see it coming down Yonge.

^True, but then the view most people would have of the sign would be TORONTO spelled backwards...

I say leave it where it is. It's a huge hit and adds a bit of fun to the square, something that would be taken away if it were put on a hill somewhere. The word "iconic" is thrown around too much on this forum, but I dare say that the sign at NPS has that potential.

Yeah, fan of it right now. @ Yonge & QQ, how 'bout double stack, one in each direction?

Somewhere atop Vaughan, so we can be the city above Vaughan.

I like the sign but in person it's already starting to come apart at the seams. Someone needs to recreate it in aluminum and heavy duty glass. As for location I'd say leave it roughly where it is.

They could put it in the middle of the pool, which would protect it but keep people from interacting with it.
