NYFE Summary
The red script and giant bottle once advertised a Pepsi bottling plant on the waterfront. Their shapes follow an earlier version of the company’s branding. Neon tubing traces the edges of the letters and bottle.
After the factory closed, the sign was saved while the surrounding waterfront changed. It was rebuilt in 1993 and moved to its permanent location in 2009. Visitors can see it from the paths at the northern end of Gantry Plaza State Park.
