In my Starbucks post, I pointed out the crab banner barely visible outside the window, and I said I'd get a photo of it sometime. Yes, that day is today! I can't say I know much about the banner, except that several of them brighten the edge of the parking lot on the Warrenton side of the Young's Bay Bridge. We have an annual Crab and Seafood Festival, and Dungeness crabs are a favorite around here, so I think the banners are simply to help "brand" our area and enliven the edge of the parking lot. They serve the purpose very well, and they make me smile. If anyone knows more, please comment on the post.
Young's Bay is below the sight line between here and the horizon, which is the Astoria peninsula. As you can see, we're enjoying some blue sky for a change.

Methinks your interpretation must be right...I mean no one would put something like that up to suggest people on the Warrenton side of the Young's Bay Bridge were crabby! Right?
Branding sounds right to me. Flags and banners seem to be popular here in Canada right now.
A fine design either, usually these banners are quite ugly.
