Entry Sign in Tampa

PGA partnered with ZooTampa at Lowry Park to provide site design services and permitting support for the new main entry marquee sign, welcoming visitors to one of Tampa’s most beloved destinations. Our Civil Site team led the effort to secure the necessary approvals for a sign that exceeded standard zoning requirements. This included coordination with the City of Tampa’s Variance Review Board and the sign’s designer and fabricator, ThemeWorks Inc., to prepare documentation and present to the board for unanimous approval. Following the variance process, PGA also supported the zoo through the permitting phase with the City of Tampa’s Construction Services Department to bring the project to construction readiness. PGA is proud to have supported the zoo’s vision and to contribute to a project that enhances both the guest experience and the Tampa community.
