Past separated from future? - The Boston Globe: "As historic sites go, the weathered sign outside the Dunkin' Donuts at the corner of Market and North Beacon streets isn't much, unless of course you're a big fan of neon. But recent rumors that the sign might not survive a planned renovation of the nearly 50-year-old franchise have raised, well, not so much protests as concerns."
I can't believe they would get rid of that sign. It's a great landmark, and getting rid of it would only further gentrification in Brighton. It's quirky, authentically retro and of course, Dunkin' Donuts and the greater Boston area have a connection that's inseparable. The sign is a classic piece of 1950's neon history and should definitely stay - it's a great landmark!
