My friend Felipe Dulzaides and I were able to put up a series of eight billboards, briefly, a few years ago, each with the intent to make the passerby pay attention to the location.
Each one featured some aspect of its site, suddenly huge: basketball backboards, parking lot stripes, surveillance camera, overhead wires. They looked like these:

This is a good one. Even if. Nobody sees it.
Wow, such a nice change from all the other billboards.
