Dear Jeff D’Ambrosio,
Congratulations you can be seen from space.
Maybe you think spending ad money to blind motorists from this insanely bright sign is the way to get new customers but you are selling cars so why aren’t you more concerned with driver safety?
I mean, do you think this sign is safe do you think this sign is not way too bright for its location? Do you think it’s nice to contribute to making the community in which you have a business as gaudy as Times Square?
I guess what I would just be thinking about if I was this car dealership is the fact that people already take issue with them because of the way, they essentially park cars right on the edge of Route 30 a lot of the time in East Whiteland.
But maybe you should put some money towards upkeep on those old structures on the property in East Whiteland and not billboard ads? These poor old and historic structures sure are getting run down looking or is that by design? Those are your rental properties correct?
And I don’t care what anyone thinks if I am singling out businesses that are contributing to the billboard blight on Route 30 by buying advertising. It is my right to comment, and I also think that if these are people and businesses doing business locally within a community that they should care about how the community looks, shouldn’t they? And is a giant billboard making Lancaster Avenue, AKA Route 30 in Frazer look like Times Square on a Thursday morning caring about the community?
Billboard Ad Blight award du jour goes to this car dealership. Shame on Jeff D’Ambrosio.

I came across this just a few days ago and I was stunned by the size and brightness of this piece of crap! Very distracting when driving at that location!! Who thought this was a good idea??
Earlier this year, at a public meeting in West Chester, the mayor asked the borough’s planning commission to come up with better planned aesthetics regarding their approval or guidance process involving proposed building projects in the borough. A few short years ago a council member stated “brick boxes” were fine for the borough as far as required aesthetics or design integrity. When the building approval process is dumbed down year after year the looks or visual character of a collective community can be diminished for decades, forever maybe. Why are elected, volunteer, or hired planners choosing lesser design standards as far what should be required for this type of process? One answer may be, follow the money, who is beholden to whom? Another answer may be that aesthetic building concepts, community planning or looks if you will, are given over to unqualified persons. Or, perhaps the public at large in the Brandywine Valley area is demanding a less rigorous design approval process.
NoMOREBIGBILLBOARDS!!!!!!!!!!!How dare these politicians in small townships allow this to happen . They are ruining our Chester County landscape!!! What can we do? It’s like taking a Renaissance painting and putting it in a neon pink plastic frame.
When I see the companies advertising on this thing (it’s not just Jeff D’Ambrosio), they immediately go onto my “no buy” list.
And when asked, I have no problem explaining why I no longer support them.
People who went to school with D’Ambrosio are starting to contact him as a matter of fact
