Footscrayzy
Corner Orford Road and Waverley Street, Essendon
This sign is an institution if you've ever lived in Essendon or the surrounding area.
For years, dedicated locals have painted (or more recently stencilled) 'zy' onto the end of this sign. For years, dedicated council workers have cleaned it off again. For years, other dedicated locals have put it right back up again. The fact that the sign is a good couple of metres off the ground is a legacy of this ongoing battle.
So famous is this particular sign that it even has its own online presence: The Footscrayzy Sign Society on Facebook.
