I've never seen a "decorative" manhole cover in Florida or Georgia Has anyone actually seen one in their daily surveying activities?

Have a great weekend! B-)
City of Miami has some but i believe they are pretty old...
Little Rock used to have a lot of these:
They went to missing and the city replace all but a few downtown.
DDSM:beer:
New Orleans Sewerage & Water Board has some nifty ones with a cresent for "The Crescent City" - because of the bends in the Mississippi River at the city. If I recall correctly, there's some stars in the covers too, but I don't know why.
Here are some from Lincoln, Nebraska. This is not my photo site, but shows some I have seen. The University of Nebraska also has their own. Deeter Foundry is located in Lincoln who makes most of the manhole covers in this area.
Just ran across one last week in LR in an alley.
