Across a Street

When the flag is hung on a wire or cable across a street, it should be hung vertically with the union to the north or east.

If the flag is suspended over a sidewalk and hung from a wire extending from a structure to a pole at the outer edge of the sidewalk, the flag should be displayed with the union (field of stars) farthest from the building.
