Background/Discussion
The scope of the project was to provide the Mid-America Center with the latest, most reliable video board and signage technology available today. An existing pylon sign located on the corner of Mid-America Drive and Marc Boulevard was no longer operational and was reconstructed. A new pylon sign is located at the corner of 23rd Avenue and Bass Pro Drive. Additionally, two monument signs equipped with the same video board technology - along with wayfinding information - were constructed on existing footings at the 24th Avenue/South 32nd Street entrance and west along the boulevard at the south entrance to the convention center. Also, twenty-four existing wayfinding and pole signs were replaced with new signs that are more clearly visible and modern in design and technology. These signs will promote activities at the MAC and will lend the opportunity to lease space to promote other businesses within the MAC Entertainment District.
This project was included in the FY19 CIP with a budget of $500,000 in General Funds and $500,000 in Iowa West Foundation grant funding.
