Several signs were restored by Yong Electric Sign Company. Several signs were destroyed due to exposure to several elements. The reverse coloured lights have been used to give the signs the illusion of being lit. The recently restored signs include the famous Silver Slipper, the Neon Boneyard City Park (next to the museum) and Moulin Rouge Hotel.
