Plains Hotel sign not for sale despite Kijiji ad

REGINA – After a bit of miscommunication, it turns out a famous Regina landmark sign is not actually for sale.

The Plains Hotel heritage sign and weather tower that once sat atop the Plains Hotel was put up for sale on Kijiji on Saturday, but it sounds like the ad will be removed before the sign is sold.

Prairie Signs was storing the sign and contacted the original owners of Capital Pointe, who said they had no use for the sign anymore and it could be put up for sale.
