House Numbers from Recycled Street Signs

We've talked about the importance of house numbers that can be seen well from the street, even at night (if there's an emergency, you don't want the police or ambulence having any trouble finding your home).  While these house numbers, which are made from recycled aluminum traffic signs, might not be as bright at night as these lighted house numbers, their reflective quality puts them a step above many address plaques.  Plus it's cool having something made from recycled materials.

"Durable and weather-resistant, all numerals are made to order and available in one of three easily seen color combinations: yellow and black; orange and black; black and white."

What a great idea. I know when trying to find someones house for the first time, I pass it by 4-5 houses before I find a house number. This is the best reason of all. "if there's an emergency, you don't want the police or ambulence having any trouble finding your home)."

I think this should be required of all cities, because this is such a big help when trying to find someone's house in the dark. Plus, it makes use of junk signs that we no longer use, so why not become more sustainable?
