Longstreet Tower Bus Parking Signs



Three new, very reflective, bus parking signs have been installed at the Longstreet Tower parking lot on Seminary Ridge. This view was taken from the northwest facing southeast at approximately 6:40 PM on Wednesday, September 17, 2008.

New bus parking signs have been installed at the Longstreet Tower parking lot on Seminary Ridge. Previously, a bus symbol had been painted on the asphalt of each lane, but they have been worn away for a long time. The individuals most happy with this change will be Licensed Battlefield Guides, who this spring had a difficult time parking tour buses in the slots that had been occupied by passenger vehicles.
