A monument sign is a freestanding structure typically situated at ground level, designed to convey information about a business, organization, or location. These signs are often built with durable materials such as stone, brick, or concrete, giving them a solid and permanent appearance. Monument signs are usually wider than they are tall and can incorporate various design elements, including logos, lettering, and decorative features. They serve not only as a means of identification but also as a way to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the property they represent, often reflecting the architectural style of the surrounding structures.
