I’m trying to vertically align the text in respective <li>. The way I built it it doesn’t really seem possible to do since the box itself is the link.

This is the standard way to do a simple navbar, right?

    It’s possible – just add line-height

    #navbar ul li a {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    height: 200px;
    letter-spacing: -0.5px;
    line-height: 200px; /* this */
    text-align: center;
    width: 20%;
}
