Sorry, We're Open

Dear Distillery District,
We really like you, but that doesn't mean that we can't offer suggestions for improvement. We'd like to introduce your sign makers to two magic words: "during construction." They could help avoid giving visitors the wrong impression about the pride you have in the site and your stores.
Wordfully,
TOist.



How about a better looking sign? Shouldn't the word OPEN be in green letters? Red usually means stop or danger.
Hmmm... It's never good to if people entering your neighbourhood feel like they are walking into a Jack Astor's.
Oops, typing error! I mean,:

Shades of the old Lickin’ Chicken sign: "Sorry, we have chicken." (But that was on purpose, like a joke.)
