This paper examines and reconsiders the structure of the construction often called Locative Inversion (LI) based on the phrase structure proposed by Culicover (1991). From the fact that LI shares a number of properties with Negative Inversion (NI), it is claimed that the sentence-initial elements of both constructions are preposed into the same position, the Spec of Polarity Phrase (PolP). LI can also be considered to be motivated by the feature [+Pos (itive)], the opposite of [+Neg (ative)] in NI. In this sense, LI can be regarded as "Positive Inversion." It is further assumed that Exceptional Verb Raising (V to I) occurs in LI, which makes the construction in question marked in English.
