PNW Workers: Western Neon

If you've walked Seattle's streets after sundown, you've laid eyes on Western Neon's craftsmanship. Since 1985 they've put their radiant stamp on our booming town. Along with the logo and working clock atop Filson Headquarters, they've created Seattle landmarks such as Rainier Brewery's "R" and the iconic pink elephant outside Elephant Car Wash.
