 MESA, ARIZONA (March 2021) – YESCO, the 100-year-old company known for creating, repairing and maintaining internationally recognizable signs, announces the design, fabrication and installation of new signs for the City of Mesa, Arizona, Falcon District and Falcon Field Airport. The Falcon Field District is anchored by the Falcon Field Airport and encompasses more than 35-square-miles of retail, commercial and industrial parks, as well as residential neighborhoods.

A three-year-long project from start to finish, YESCO completed signage for the City of Mesa ‘s Falcon District, including three new 14-feet-by-6-inch center median pylon signage located on Recker, Greenfield and Higley Roads, south of the 202, wrapped traffic signal boxes with vinyl graphics and light pole banners. Also completed were Falcon Field Airport directional signs, multi-dimensional curved spire display with the airport name, pole-mounted directional signage and an 18-feet-high electronic message center pylon sign with a high-contrast, superior-quality 8mm Daktronics EMC display.

The Falcon Field Airport monument sign was installed on the northwest corner of McKellips Road and Falcon Drive. The monument sign is a part of the planned Airport Historic Zone improvements that also include the historic photo wraps on some of the City-owned hangars and the air traffic control tower as well as the wayfinding signs. At night, the sign will be illuminated for easy visibility.
