The sign is for Berry-Burk and Company, a clothing retailer that dates back to the 1879. The Berry-Burk & Company name was born through mergers and buyouts in 1931. The sign sits atop the Berry-Burk store that was known as “The Fashion Center of the South.” The Renaissance Revival style building was built in 1928. In 2006, the building was converted to “luxury” apartments homes. The redevelopment of the building incorporated the Berry-Burk name. The building is located in the Grace Street Commercial Historic District that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. EC Leatherberry – Flickr Photostream

Hey there Frank!

I’m so glad you like the shot!  Being in marketing and communications, I do find this older form of advertising pretty remarkable.  A far cry from today’s world of FB, Twitter and YouTube, yes?!  We took the image at the very southern tip of Seneca Lake in Watkins Glen Harbor in Watkins Glen, NY.  By my estimation (thank you Google maps), the building was on the corner of Franklin and Division streets.  I sure hope that helps!

With warmest wishes for a beautiful Holiday season~

The “Mariage” banner that was covering another fade looks like “Federal Stoves” or “stoves.” Enzo and I were hoping to be the next couple for the Mariage Magazine cover since we did get married in Canada- Toronto. We’re still waiting to hear from them.

Thank you SCOTUS for hearing these two Marriage Equality cases. I am hoping you do what is RIGHT for America.
