Still wondering when they're going to complete the marquee above the Chestnut St restaurant entrance. They did a wonderful job with the etched Art Deco glass* above, but the cartoonish, flat 3D-ish painted depiction of neon on the marquee has got to go. Then again the restaurant is running a bit late as well, to have opened Fall 2018.
