It’s time for another chapter in the running annals of public signage gone horribly, terribly wrong. This entry comes courtesy of Clear Channel Outdoor, which manages a growing number of D.C.’s bus shelters. (The company is in the middle of a 20-year contract to eventually replace all of the city’s bus shelters, in exchange for conducting all the advertising sales on the modern structures it erects.)

However, someone at Clear Channel might want to check a map, or at the very least a list of the names of the states, because a shelter at the corner of Pennsylvania and Minnesota avenues SE needs a fix—urgently.

“Pennsylvanaia Av & Minnesota Av, SE” it reads. Now, setting aside qualms about the incorrect manner in which Clear Channel abbreviates the word “avenue” and its use of the ampersand, that’s just ugly! (H/T to Veronica Davis for sending this in.)
