We’re thrilled to announce that Historic Uptown is getting new street signs, but we need your help to take the project beyond the basics.

To make sure every intersection reflects our shared identity, we’re raising funds to install signs at 44 intersections, four signs at each, for a total of 176 signs.

Our goal is $1,422 for 18 signs!

Individuals can sponsor a street sign for their block to ensure timely installation

• Intersections with signals: 19 (signaled intersections paid for by the city)
• Intersections with no signals: 25 (2 signs per intersections/$79 per intersection) = $1,975
• Historic Uptown raised $600 for street signs at the Summer Farmers Market in Acacia Park: 7
• Intersections needing to be funded: 18 = $1422

Each sign will feature our logo and read Historic Uptown Neighborhood with the Historic District, when appropriate, listed below.

The cost per sign ranges from $100 to $200, depending on size and materials. That adds up quickly, but with community support, we can make it happen.

Here’s how you can help:

• Make a donation to the Historic Uptown Neighborhood. Every dollar brings us closer to our goal of
• Coordinate with neighbors on your block to sponsor signs at your intersection.
• Spread the word by talking to your friends, family, and fellow residents about contributing to the campaign.

Want to see what the signs will look like? Members of our team are working directly with the City’s Traffic Engineering office to finalize colors, materials, and placement. We’ll be sharing a finalized design soon, and we’re committed to making these signs both durable and beautiful.

This is a legacy project that will add charm, visibility, and neighborhood pride for years to come. Let’s invest in something we’ll all benefit from together.
