Signville

Thomas Sign Creations is in the process of disassembling and refurbishing an old set of steel channel letters that spell out POINSETT HOTEL on the rooftop tower of the beautiful, historic hotel built in 1925. TSC, in conjunction with SignTech of the Carolinas, has removed the old letters and raceways, which have been in place since the mid-1950’s, and have rebuilt and repainted the letters, manufactured new neon light tubes and will be reinstalling the rebuilt letters and new raceways by year end.

 

The Mayor and the City of Greenville are behind this project because, like most cities, Greenville is trying to maintain as much of their historic architecture as possible and this sign was an icon in the city for decades, although it has been inoperable and in very bad shape for many, many years. 

 

The plan, at this point, is for the Mayor to flip the switch at midnight on New Year’s Eve bringing new life to a piece of history in the city. Thomas Sign Creations is excited about the project because they don’t get the opportunity very often to bring something this old back to life.

 

Since 2004, Thomas Sign Creations has been designing, manufacturing and installing unique architectural signage concepts in some of the finest commercial office buildings, hotels and retail establishments in the Carolinas. For more information, contact Jack Thomas at 704-651-4918 or visit them on the web at www.signville.com.
