    Guessing less about the sign itself and more about the heavy equipment/traffic obstruction involved in getting it down.

      Also possibly because he doesn’t own the building and maybe needs approval of the owner.

          Agreed. But the owner of the building would presumably be able to control modifications of his own building.

          But owners would probably call the police to stop the illegal work from being done to their building. They don’t want the liability. This would be reasonable to be part of an approval process with the building owners as you’d likely need their signature with the city, not just twitters.
