The “Domino Sugars” sign, a Baltimore fixture that has cast its red neon glow across the Inner Harbor since 1951, will be retired March 1.
At sunset that day, the refinery’s rooftop will darken, but only for four months. Crew will remove and replace the 120-by-70-foot sign, one of the last, most visible vestiges of Baltimore’s once-mighty industrial past.
If the $2 million project goes as planned, an LED-powered sign will light up on the Fourth of July and the sugar importer hopes no one notices the difference. The new sign will be more durable and environmentally friendly, but it is designed to match the look of the original.
