broken lamppost at tavern on the green

Now here is where we are going to get a little catty . . .

The sign outside the Tavern on the Green Restaurant is BROKEN! This photograph was taken in 2007.

If you look closely at this pole you will see there are two signs aligned on the post. On the left is the green sign that when lit at night signals the need for a taxi for a departing restaurant patron.

But on the right side, you will see the square shape signature sign of the restaurant. This sign features the rounded words of the restaurant outlined in neon. Wedged in between the words as part of the logo is a moose. How the moose became part of this logo is a mystery to us.

did you know the empire state building stays open for visitors after 2 am?
 
 

If you look at the photograph of the sign on the left, you will see there is no neon tubing over the "RN" in the word Tavern and no neon tubing at all on the word "ON" in this sign.

For a restaurant that is a signature NYC landmark for so many visitors, we find this broken signage a disgrace and shame on the Tavern's staff for not seeing this and fixing it before we made this observation.
