Cell Phone Towers -- Community Markers and Designs

In the rush for updating equipment to provide more data and phone capacity, wireless providers appear to leave little room for creativity in the design of their transmission towers.  Even the number of their fake tree designs, (mono-pines, mono-palms, etc.) are limited.

The drawings below represent two ideas:

1.  Cell phone towers are an opportunity to identify the community they are located in by simply writing the name of the community on it 

2.  There should be a broader menu of "standardized" towers for communities to choose from





The above two towers takes its design from the lighted translucent cylinders
 that mark the entrance to LAX.

The City of Los Angeles and its namesake image has an opportunity to welcome a host of "angels" flying over and marking its different neighborhoods below
