Fort George signage variance in downtown historic district
Summary
A historic 1920 downtown building is getting well above the normal sign allowance, framed as architecturally compatible band signage matching the brewery's main building and the building's own historic look. It shows how the city balances sign-code limits with historic character and business identity.
