Brooklyn Goes Neon

During walks these last couple of months I've noticed an increased usage of neon signs on Brooklyn storefronts. Yesterday I decided to go for a 2 hour walk and try to photograph as many signs as possible. It totaled 25, even though I only photographed signs for stores that were obviously young.

Here's the 25 photos. There's really no common design style, although the trendiest stores seem to go for white neon with newer sans serif fonts.

The Spritzenhaus neon sign is a good example of the newer neon sign designs in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
