"The Coke sign" once sat at the gateway of the city's long-established (but **w wilting) nightlife centre, Kings Cross. **w that the vintage sign is getting a refurbishment (due to be unveiled mid-September) some of the original parts are going up for auction, with proceeds going to the Wayside Chapel — who've been struggling local people for longer than the sign's been around.
