It’s time to give this classic landmark a good old makeover!
The Hollywood sign in Los Angeles, California is going to be revamped ten years since it was repaired. According to the Hollywood Sign Trust, which oversees and maintains the iconic location, it was the right time to get the job done.
"The last time that we painted the sign was in 2012 and paint lasts about 10 years," Jeff Zarrinnam, Hollywood Sign Trust chair shared with the news. "The Hollywood sign is just not a symbol of a place, it's a symbol of the entertainment industry."
In honor of the sign’s coming centennial birthday, it will be getting a special paint, called Hollywood Sign Centennial White. The color was specially made by Sherwin-Williams.
The trust estimates that 400 gallons will be used for the process. The makeover will be finished around November, and people will be ready to see the sign in its new revitalized glory.
