‘X’ Sign at Former Twitter HQ , Removed Following Complaints.

According to Patrick Hannan, the
San Francisco Department of Building Inspection
and City Planning communications director, .
"over the weekend, the Department of Building Inspection and City Planning received 24 complaints about the unpermitted structure, including concerns about its
structural safety and illumination.".
X reportedly denied inspectors
access to the sign, stating that it was a "temporary lighted sign for an event.".
However, you still need a permit for such a thing, even if it's only intended to be "temporary," Hannan said.
As a result, the building's owner will be
fined for "building permits for the
installation and removal of the structure.".
