How does this letter-form communicate its location?

This mural is located right by the seafront facing the Belfast Lough, so passing ferries and cruise ships can read it. A local artist created this lettering as a statement of the area and he nailed it. The serif font feels traditional yet fresh. The letters feel very in place here.
