Citgo Sign
An electrically lit Citgo sign can be seen from inside Fenway, located outside the park, in the view above the left-field wall. The famous sign, located atop the building housing the Barnes and Noble Boston University bookstore on nearby Kenmore Square, was erected in 1965, replacing a "Cities Service" sign (Citgo's old name) that had been there previously. The sign is kept as a landmark. On October 15, 2008, a small fire caused minor damage to the sign.

Famous quotes containing the word sign:
“Let us speak, though we show all our faults and weaknesses,—for it is a sign of strength to be weak, to know it, and out with it,—not in a set way and ostentatiously, though, but incidentally and without premeditation.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
