U-Haul on West Capitol Avenue

This tall sign is still standing at the U-Haul on West Capitol Avenue. When you drive down the avenue all the old signs are gone now, replaced by the more "sedate" monument style signage that the City of West Sacramento's sign ordinance now requires.

West Sacramento Wins!

Kings Restaurant for Dim Sum

You won't see many cars at King's Chinese Restaurant on West Capitol Avenue during the week, but check out how many are parked there on Sunday morning for Dim Sum. Take a look at the old tall sign on Tom Spaldings Website... it was removed when the sign ordinance was enforced.

The El Rancho Mobile Home Park is located at the site of the old El Rancho Drive-in Movie Theater (1 screen and held 780 cars). Photos of the old signage can be seen on Flickr by Tom Spalding.
