SNA Displays Powers Digital Billboard for Auto Center

A large, dual-faced digital pylon for the Puente Hills Auto Center, a group of car dealerships in the Puente Hills area east of L.A., featured an upgrade of EMPIRE Exterior LED display technology from New York City-based SNA Displays.

The digital pylon signs can be read from both east and westbound lanes of Pomona Freeway (Route 60). It also features digital-out-of-home (DOOH) content, says SNA Displays. This content comes with a heavy focus on car brands within the auto center. These include Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Land Rover, Jaguar and more.

Installing the Solution

(EMI), which managed and serviced the auto center’s original freeway structure more than 15 years ago, oversaw the digital enhancement project. Here, it selected a 16 mm pixel pitch for the new double-faced LED billboard. For the upgrade, EMI also secured 100% funding from the City of Industry in southern California. With this, the company completed a full revamp of the sign with new, state-of-the-art SNA Displays LED technology. EMI also redesigned and modernized brand panels and performed a total structure repaint, without any foundational changes.

According to a statement, Blake Sign Company provided sign installation services.

A Worthy Investment
