Georges Velasquez of Williams Sign Company repaints the iconic Coates Cyclery sign on Tuesday along Foothill Boulevard in Pomona. The former Coates location will now house the Pet Service Solutions, Pet Hotel, and the owners are remaking the sign with their information. According to Jay Stokes, co-owner of the pet hotel, the city of Pomona required that the sign retain its mid century appearance because it is a historic landmark. The new sign will have neon just like the old one with the same basic shape. COURIER photo/Steven Felschundneff
