Well, without giving it too much thought... on basically anything that does not seriously detract from a historic structure. I wouldn't like to see the Guardian or the Penobscot covered in them, but I think on Lower Woodward south of Campus Martius, as well as around Campus Martius such as on the Compuware Building, Ernst and Young, the several parking structures, and perhaps on other buildings in which they would look appropriate. The city should have to approve new signage as it is proposed. But, the worst case scenario is that these signs become a tourist attraction and people take pictures in front of them. If I had it my way, the signs should be electronic. I really dig the digital marquees with news updates you see in New York, and the video screens with streaming media. It makes the city seem lively and happening. Our CBD could use an injection of life so that it feels more like a 21st century, fast-paced city. Lighted, visual displays would definitely help.
