Detroit is set to erect a 10-foot-tall "DETROIT" sign along eastbound Interstate 94 as part of the city’s 2024 NFL draft improvement plans, resembling the iconic Hollywood sign but on a smaller scale. The sign, to be illuminated in Detroit’s colors, is being fabricated by Detroit-based Fairmount Sign Company and is expected to be installed by early April. The project, which includes new "Welcome to Detroit" gateway signs, has garnered positive community feedback and aims to enhance the city's aesthetic appeal.
