Vintage Signage

The Uptown District contains many buildings constructed from 1860 to early 1900s. Two of these buildings still bear original signage, such as the John Auer Grocer (225 East Fifth Street), and the Marysville Cabinet Company (204 East Fourth Street). Although the signs were repaired in 2010-2011, they remain unchanged from their original design and placement.
