antrim_st.jpgSo it probably doesn’t have anything to do with my expos? on the subject from three months ago, but the strange street sign reading “Antrim At” has been changed to the more traditional “Antrim St.,” as of this weekend. I don’t know if the city stopped working with the company that made the sign in the first place, but they managed to get the typeface wrong in the new sign. It’s ugly, for one, and looks like it’s got a case of the dreaded horizontal scaling. The abbreviation, while correct, has been changed to “St” instead of the expected “ST,” the convention most other Cambridge street signs follow. So it’s better now, but still kind of wrong, I guess that’s my point. Oh, and in other news, looks like they chopped down a tree, too, but that’s probably unrelated.
