spotted in the hallway outside of the Allen Street GrillAs I looked around, I really enjoyed seeing that the other signage upstairs also uses ITC Benguiat as its basis; sometimes condensed, sometimes extended, but the same consistent family.
About this font family: “Perhaps the ultimate Art Nouveau typeface, designed for ITC three quarters of a century after its time by Ed Benguiat. The structure, and some of the features, are those of Kleukens, with the familiar ITC refinement, large x-height and close fit.”
