One would suppose that Shula's would want to be open in time for the SuperBowl.

They had a crane and people doing something at the roofline this morning. But it's like that lots of mornings and I saw no sign of a sign. That'd be funny if they and GTECH put their signs up on the same day.

Thats just what they did. The Hilton sign was installed today.

It looks like the below image but without the H swoop.

Is it on the back of the building as well?

Edit: using the Westin Cam, I can see that it was, but it just says Hilton. I hope that is not it, that they will put the "H" logo. if not, the signage grumblers busy on the GTECH thread should come over here.

[Cotuit]

Hmmm, interesting, it's sign installing day. Anyone check out Bowl & Board to see if they joined in on the fun?

[matt]

Big signage day!

Thanks Westin Cam!

They should put a mural all over it.

I really do not like that building at all, they need to do something else to it, because right now it is boring and ugly.

[dgreco]

How about tacking a nice big tower onto the side of it?

[Cotuit]

Nope, not lit yet.

Probably because the giant "H" logo isn't up yet. Or because it isn't actually a Hilton yet.

As a building it is very uninspiring. It will get only uglier as the years pass by. I am much more excited by the three story glass addition on the side and the retail, light and life it brings to LaSalle Sq.

Still, it is better than it used to be. And from a streetscape perspective, much better all around.

is the glass section still getting an lcd ticker sign?

[dgreco]

Now that the sign is up, how close is to being a confirmed hilton hotel?

[prudence]

Like I said, there was never any danger of this not being a Hilton.

But yes, the sign on the building and the Hilton Help Wanted ads are good signs if you are still doubting it!
