Foster City
This is the Foster City sign in (you guessed it) Foster City, California. Founded in the 60s, Foster City is built entirely on landfill in what was previously marshland. Matt Schneider says that during the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake the reclaimed land made it feel like “being in a building on soup”.
Anyway, these giant letters are pretty cool - compare them to the size of the houses!
Thanks to William Kendrick, Mazin Jalili, Matt Schneider
