One of the most annoying things that I experience on a very frequent basis is the absence of any kind of address sign on may of the business buildings along the Main Street in our town. If I hadn’t grown up here, I swear I would never be able to find anything based on just being given an address! The vast majority of the buildings along the road need some kind of address plaque.
That is one of the things that I think makes a town more “user-friendly” to tourists and out-of-towners. What good is a GPS unit if it tells you that you’ve reached your destination and you look around for address signs and can’t find one anywhere?
I think that it should be part of the town code in downtown that easily seen address plaques are a REQUIREMENT. And by easily seen, I mean easily seen from a vehicle from the road, not something tucked up under an eave that can only be seen by pedestrians!
