Fernandina Beach welcomes new gateway sign

A new look to the gateway to Fernandina Beach is in progress at the intersection of 8th and Lime streets. The city had the structure re-stuccoed, FastSigns owner Eric Webb said and his company added dimensional lettering and the city seal. “We are thrilled that the sign is finished,” Main Street Executive Director Lisa Finkelstein. She said there will be three trees installed Wednesday and additional landscaping Thursday, and irrigation and lighting will be customized for the gateway. Finkelstein said Main Street hopes to complete work on signage west side of 8th Street next week, as the city has installed irrigation there. Flag poles will be installed and additional landscaping will be planted as well.
