In 1997 we built and installed the University Heights city sign. The sign has been an icon of the neighborhood for almost 30 years now. University Heights Community Association (UHCA) shared some amazing photos from the installation in March of 1997. This year we had the opportunity to replace all the neon for the letters and some of the border units as well. As part of the repair we had to replace some of the transformers, all of which are original from the 90s. The sign is still running on some of the original transformers which is incredible.

We love preserving neon signs especially the ones we build. Almost 30 years ago we built and installed this sign in University Heights in San Diego. All these years later it’s amazing to see the appreciation and care of the community.

We built the iconic Coachman’s sign in Salt Lake City in the 1970s. In 2021, the restaurant closed, and the future of the sign became uncertain. We were honored when Liberty Wells Community Council came to us with a plan to save the sign. With the help of the community, enough money was raised to remove and store the sign until a new home can be found. The community is actively looking for a new home to put the sign in Salt Lake if anyone has any ideas..

We truly believe and hope neon will always have a place in the sign world and we will always advocate for preserving historic signs while exploring ever changing sign technology. Las Vegas has always been the biggest sign playground in the world and we are excited for what the future holds. We would love to hear which signs from the past or present are your favorite!

SALT LAKE CITY (October 2024) – YESCO, the 104-year-old company known for creating, repairing and maintaining internationally recognizable signs, announces it will begin the design, fabrication and installation of new signage, lighting and large-scale architectural steel structures on the Ocotillo Bridge in Gilbert, Arizona. Spanning over the future phases of Gilbert Regional Park, the project marks a significant addition to the visual landscape of the area, seamlessly blending functionality with the aesthetic appeal of the Ocotillo bridge built by Sundt Construction.

The $112 million dollar project will be funded by voter approved transportation bonds and will significantly improve public safety response times and reduce traffic congestion in the area.

The Gilbert Regional Park sign will feature two sets of illuminated pan channel letters and cabinets, which not only will ensure longevity but also enhance the visual impact, particularly at night. In designing the 44-foot-long sign, YESCO meticulously considered the bridge’s architecture, ensuring the sign complements the surrounding environment while standing out as a distinctive landmark.

The most prominent feature of the project will include four massive steel structures, each measuring approximately 55 feet by 60 feet. These integrated shade structures each consist of seven separate steel “leaf-like” components, measuring 7 feet by 24 feet, creating an impressive, nature-inspired design.

As part of the installation, YESCO will also provide and install RGBW programmable lighting on the bridge arches, underside and columns. This dynamic lighting will add a captivating visual element, enhancing both safety and aesthetics during nighttime.

YESCO has proven to be a valuable partner, delivering exceptional design and constructability reviews during the project's preconstruction phase, solidifying its reputation as one of the best in the industry.

“We’re thrilled to be starting work on this important project which will provide a much-needed arterial connection and bring the town’s long awaited vision to life,” said Sundt vice president and business development manager Jeff Hamilton.

“Incorporating cutting-edge technology into a timeless design, the Gilbert Regional Park sign will be a beacon that honors Gilbert’s past while lighting the way for its future,” said Jeff Young, executive vice president, YESCO.

We’re thrilled to announce the completion of a stunning new signage project for the Chandler Airpark Area Employment Corridor in Chandler, Arizona.

The project, initiated in early 2022, was part of Chandler’s ongoing placemaking and branding initiatives aimed at enhancing the identity of key areas. The City of Chandler engaged YESCO to design and construct seven new displays, strategically located throughout the airpark to highlight the area’s importance and provide clear, impactful wayfinding.

The design process began with a series of conceptual options created by YESCO's design director Mark Ritenour, which were reviewed and refined in close collaboration with the city’s economic development team. Design options were then presented to the city leadership and stakeholder groups to receive feedback and community buy-in. A final design was selected that incorporates the city’s branding while evoking an aviation theme fitting for the Chandler Airpark Area. The design’s modern aesthetic, includes unique metal swooshes that complement the fixed-height lettering on the signs.

“We initiated this project with the goal of enhancing the Chandler Airpark Area’s brand identity and sense of place,” said Michael Winer, City of Chandler Economic Development Project Manager. “YESCO understood this goal and we are thrilled with how the signs turned out. It was a pleasure working with Kelly Chipman, our account rep, and the rest of the YESCO team.”

FUN FACTS:
● YESCO created a custom slab footing with bolt-on supports, ensuring the signage can be relocated in the future if necessary.
● The signs use reflective lettering to help them be visible in the evening without the need to install and maintain electric illumination.
● The project took approximately 1485 man-hours of labor to complete.

“This project was an exciting opportunity for YESCO to blend functionality with artful design,” said Jeff Young, executive vice president, YESCO. “Creating signage that not only stands out but also serves the evolving needs of the Chandler Airpark was a fulfilling challenge.”
