Gas City’s Industrial Park now has a pylon sign to advertise its businesses including the Walmart Distribution Center,
American Woodmark, Wright Repair, and BWI (Butterworth Industries). This multi-tenant sign is internally
illuminated with LEDs providing a nice, bright-white illumination for the sign faces. The tenant faces are flat
with digitally printed graphics while the header cabinet has pan formed faces with digitally printed graphics.
With the help of Bowman Construction, the foundation was added by excavating and setting two
steel tubes in concrete. From there, we welded the signs to the steel tubes and the masonry
was added.
“Huston Electric was an easy choice for the city’s new industrial park sign. We have worked with
Huston in the past and have never been disappointed. Their level of training, attention to detail
and quick response to our needs resulted in a successful project that complements our industrial park.
The clients of our industrial park are pleased at the increased visibility for their companies.
Samantha Milburn was great to work with, her knowledge, experience and professionalism are an
asset to Huston. Thanks Huston, we look forward to working with you again.”
– Brad Kline, Permits Officer
We want to send a big “thank you” to the City of Gas City for choosing Huston for this sign project!
