Will they take down that old rusty falling-apart railroad crossing signal too? It's always amused me how, when the Community Path was built, they removed the rails precisely up to the edge of the sidewalk and no further.

I sorta like having that crossing sign, as a reminder of what used to be here. If they remove it, maybe they can save it and erect it again somewhere on the path extension?

I guess the answer is "no", because they took out the rails and repaved the road today, but left the old railroad-crossing sign in place.
