Metric signs in the U.S.

Gateway Arch, St. Louis

Metric and customary height sign inside the Gateway Arch at the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in St. Louis. Photo taken 7 February 2006 by B. Tristan Denyer.

Note that the symbol “m” for meters should not be capitalized, although it would be acceptable to spell out “METERS” in all caps.
