Not currently, but the Hyatt House on Broadway will have one.

There’s also John’s Big Deck, but I’m not sure if that counts

That Salesforce sign breaks all of my rules. Impressive.

In fact, it makes me want to make a new rule: Text must be large

Rooftop signs are banned in Pasadena, with the exception of those built before 1960, which have been grandfathered in.

They can’t design the thing for a Northloop removal that could or couldn’t happen in the future.

Why not?

Nyc-based names can be pretty cheesy, and calling something East Village is about as bad as you can get. Maybe call it something like East Park, assuming the stadium indeed goes there

There are at least three large parking garages within a block, which I have never seen full, but I have no idea if they're planning to lease spots in one. I can't imagine that building has any parking at the moment, but I have no idea. Surely someone around here knows more than I do. It features no...

I'm so thankful that this new plan does not involve lobotomizing the ground floors to add parking and new car holes. #NeverForget

Thanks for sharing these photos! Any chance we will see that signage structure reused? I've always wished something was on it!

It's encouraging to finally see this building getting redeveloped.

I can't remember. Are the ballrooms going to be an rental event space?

Boy do these bring back some memories. I use to go here all the time when it had a Gold's Gym...loved playing racquetball there.

What years was the Gold's Gym there? What facilities did it have?
