The pin has been refurbished with new lettering for an apartment complex that was built on the site of the former bowling alley.
[jake mckinnon, 03/05/2019]Gone... for now this was taken down due to corrosion and need of repainting. The landowners and City Council have promised that it will return.

Letters didn't rotate when I was there, but the sign is still looking great!
[Meg Zorn, 10/03/2016]This bowling alley has just been sold to land developers and is already being torn down. No word as to whether the sign will remain.

I stopped to take some daytime photos of the giant bowling pin. The letters in the middle of the pin rotate in sync, displaying the message, "classic - bowling." Or, they DID rotate; the last two times I've been by, both during the day, they were not moving. I hope it's just a temporary glitch!
