This past Thursday, workers removed the new floors-tall Peter Jarema Funeral Home from the north-facing wall at 108 Avenue B and Seventh Street... prompting several reader emails and photos...
This removal came after a
new ad appeared here on Feb. 9. (Back story: During exterior renovations
last June, workers sandblasted away the 60-year-old ad for the funeral home that's on Seventh Street between Avenue A and First Avenue.)
While speculating why workers took down the ad (did they read EVG
reader comments about the font?), it went right back up...
And later on Thursday...
Anyway, as you all were!

Hope the advertising helps bring in some business. Always looks pretty dead in there!
I saw them painting the hooks holding up the sign to match the walls, so maybe they just wanted to protect the banner.
weird
Was the sign buried or cremated?
They should just paint it on there like the old days, it's the right size and look. would make a cool ghost signage in 100 years when we're all ghosts ourselves!
