The RAMCO gas station in Julian was remodeled with no regard to the town's historic character or to the signage requirements of the Julian Architectural Review Board. The station's plastic orange signs and cluttered lot contrasts with Julian's Gold Rush atmosphere. The station's architectural offenses are made to look all the worse because it sits next to the "Julian Coffee House," a quaint and period correct building that enhances the historic quality of Main Street. (See photos of RAMCO and Coffee House.)
