Due to the store\u2019s location at the busy corner of Red Road and Bird Avenue, thousands of cars must pass it daily, making the sign a landmark \u2013 a landmark that is suddenly gone!<\/p>\n<p>I recently drove through the Red\/Bird intersection and thought that something looked odd, but could not figure out precisely what it was until I read about the missing sign in the Miami Herald.  Their reporter called Allen\u2019s Drugs to inquire about the mystery and discovered that the neon letters have been removed for painting.  However, the city of South Miami indicated that no permit has been requested for its re-installation.  <\/p>\n<p>Will the Allen\u2019s Drugs sign go back up?  Only time will tell.  I hope that it does because I love the retro charm that it brings to our thoroughly modern city. <\/p>\n<p>If you need help buying or selling a home give Ashley Cusack a call at 305.798.8665, or visit her website at: <a title=\"Luxury Miami Real Estate\" href=\"http:\/\/ashleycusack.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Luxury Miami Real Estate<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/ashleycusack.com\/images\/ac-tag.png\" alt=\"Luxury Miami Real Estate\" align=\"middle\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>My focused dedication as a realtor in my home town of Miami for over 25 years, consistently puts me at the top of my field.
