At Least the Lettering Is Nice

I had to hang around the Snelling-Selby intersection in Saint Paul today for a little while, waiting for a business to open. While there, I appreciated some of the commercial buildings along the north side of Selby, east of Snelling:

Up close in the lobby window of the one in the center, the streamline moderne Park Building, I admired the look of the interior that I could see, particularly the mailboxes, and the way they have hired a professional sign painter for the glass, who provided lettering in styles appropriate to the age of the building:

The message, however, is less inspiring.

And today I learned the same company owns (or maybe just manages?) the Park Building and the building to the left, as well as the apartments above the building to the right. As well as a number of other historic buildings in Saint Paul.
