Notes
  • Significance: The sign on the Ogden River Bridge is a decorative, steel-framed, truss-arched structure featuring neon lighted graphics. The sign was conceived and built as the result of the efforts of Ogden's prominent and colorful mayor, Harmon W. Peery. It was designed and constructed in 1936 by the Young Electric Sign Company. The sign is also a rather rare structure, in that only five road spanning signs are known to have been constructed in Utah.
