Left for cyberspace

April 24th, 2009 in Images, Night, Urban

As part of the wave (at least in the U.S.) of dying newspapers, one of Seattle’s two daily papers recently went out of print, and switched to an online-only business model. As a result, their signature neon sign on the Seattle waterfront is now homeless (although fortunately, still lit):

Left for cyberspace

What can I say, I just love neon. Anyway, some locals told me that the plan was for the moving neon sign (the red letters rotate around the globe) to move further soon — to a local museum. Apparently an online newspaper can’t justify the cost of a fancy building and sign on the waterfront.
