Public Market Center neon sign (Pike Place Market)

The large neon 'Public Market Center' sign hangs above the main entrance to Pike Place Market and has served as a widely recognized visual identifier for the market for many decades. Pike Place Market itself opened in 1907, and the sign is maintained as part of the market's historic character within the Pike Place Market Historic District. The sign and surrounding storefronts form a long-standing public installation frequented by residents and visitors.
