The "Yes, this is a pool" sign is way too much like this T-shirt:

Was it? I thought it was an "f you" to the people who were displaced from the West End?At least the 'If you lived here, you'd be home" sign was a slightly clever/amusing.
I have spent a career working in all of these areas, so yes.

If the idea is met with crickets, perhaps some introspection as to who's actually getting screwed could be on the menu?

A nice gateway tower statement - "Welcome to Boxton, home of the box"
At least we're not selling ourselves as something we're not, I suppose.
