A FRESH COAT OF PAINT GOES A LONG WAY

Penn's campus

CONNECT?!?!? And here I was thinking the signs indicated the boundary.
yes, penn prof michael larice is quoted saying that the
signs 'mark territorial boundaries'.
and penn's facilities/real estate spokesman andrew zitcer
says they indicate branding. synonymous with 'clean and
safe,' he says.
earlier this year (april) zitcer wrote an article in the
city paper (http://tinyurl.com/ypez5j) wondering why on
earth all those white stickers were appearing, the ones that
said THIS IS WEST PHILLY. "UNIVERSITY CITY" IS A MARKETING
SCHEME. (http://tinyurl.com/yr9gur). zitcer couldn't figure
out what they meant by marketing, or why the stickers were
suddenly appearing. it was all very provoking and confusing
to him.
but, no matter. he ended that article saying he didn't lay
awake at night thinking about what to call the neighborhood.
and now here he is, in the dp, wide awake and clear-headed,
explaining the new penn/uc-branding that's been painted on 4
railway bridges looming over the main gateways to our
neighborhood.
