After just two short weeks, the LA City Nerd Call to Action #1 has been a resounding success so far. But, we're not quite there yet...We're looking for all the official LA City Neighborhood Signs (blue with a City seal) out there and collecting a photo on the LA City Neighborhood Signs Flickr page. As of right now, we have 202 photos of 140 of the known signs (plus one special green sign joint with the County). Some are signs not on the list we originally posted (from 2005, with 2 added as of last month).
We still know of 44 signs that the City claims exist but for which we do not have photos. See if you can get a shot of one or two (or 27!) and upload them this week:

Ooh! Ooh! I got Mount Angelus!
*scratching head about toonerville* what happened to that? i read that, right
"Arroyo View Estates" WTF??? As if Garvanza wasn't small enough already. Seems this whole neighborhood naming process is really easy to get passed. I'm inspired to rename my area of Highland Park: "Taggerville" for its rich graffiti heritage.
I just snapped one of Historic Downtown. I'll upload later tonight!
Ugh, Marina Peninsula is still not listed on your list, but it's been on Flickr for awhile now.
Took Mount Angelus too. Also posted Sylmar and Pacoima. Drove all around Mission Hills, but couldn't find the official sign! And the city has yet to put up "Arroyo View Estates" at Avenue 66 and Easy St, in the community of Garvanza.
I found the Westchester sign! On Lincoln Blvd. I must have driven by it 1000 times, never noticed it until the other day.
