Top 5 signs in New Bern, NC

MARQUEE LETTERS · BRUIN THEATER, NEW BERN

New Bern’s signage does a lot of the town’s talking, and our shop built a good share of it. We put the same care into every sign that leaves the floor, but some projects get that extra flair, whether bigger investment, bolder vision, or both. Here are five of ours around town worth slowing down for.

1. Bruin Theater. The marquee-bulb letters at the Bruin put you in the mood for a feature before you reach the door. Custom framework, letters, and lighting, all from our fabrication shop; our install team handled the interior and exterior signage for the remodel. See it at 2500 Neuse Boulevard.

2. C Stone Church. The church wanted to work the busy highway, so we styled this LED pylon for the US-70 frontage in James City. The see-through cross logo sits on top against open sky, the full-color LED board carries announcements, and bold channel letters stand off the main frame.

3. Coastal Carolina Regional Airport. Growth in eastern North Carolina pushed EWN to expand, and the expansion needed a front door. This mixed-media monument pairs a brick base with mounted lettering and a paper-plane mark welcoming travelers to a growing region.

4. Adkins Dentistry. Easy to drive past, hard to forget once you’ve looked: an intricate tooth pattern routed into the body of the monument, with a backlit tooth on top. Our fabricators nailed the details on this one.

5. Riverside Automotive Group. The dealership capped its new location with stonework and water features that nod to its flagship Jeep brand. The Riverside channel lettering rides the top of the monument against blue, with wood tones below that read pure North Carolina coast.

Honorable mentions: Two Rivers Church and Creekside Park. Either could swap onto this list without argument.
