The individual letter ways are currently tagged tourism=artwork. There's
an outstanding request to have the Standard stylesheet render such ways:
https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/855
In the meantime, would it be too much of a stretch to tag them
barrier=wall too? That would get the letters on the map in some fashion,
and after all they would generally impede you if you tried to walk right
through them.

That was me -- but I would argue it's an unusual way to tag it -- it's
not the individual letters that are important, it's the whole piece. You
wouldn't tag each president in Mount Rushmore and leave it at that,
right? To me the letters are secondary and to the whole. The FDR
Memorial in DC is the same way, each part is tagged, but there's a point
for the whole thing. Or maybe it should be tagged as an area, since the
sign takes up an area?

Interesting, but now it doesn't render. I saw it was gone and
worried somebody from that article took it off. Can we include a
point in the relation for it, so that it does render?
Someone has indeed done this. IMHO we shouldn't duplicate the data
(or non-data, in this case there are no more tags than name and
tourism=attraction on the new node), we should find a way to render
the name from the relation without "tagging for the renderer"-hacks.
This would include changing osm2pgsql to deal with site-relations.
I couldn't find any ticket for site-relations in the osm2pgsql and
osm-carto repos, so I have added them.
cheers,
