The Corner Drug Store

Today I was checking out an outdoor market when I discovered this old sign on the side of a building. The building is the Buena Vista Building. It was once home to Rexall Drugstore. Later it was turned into a Bed & Breakfast. It is closed and is in the process of being torn down. I may post another shot or two as it was quite interesting to look at

[Graham Thresher]

Great shot.

[Dione Giorgio]

Hope they preserve the sign. Great capture.

[Wendy]

It really is too bad when wonderful old buildings like this are let go to decay. I guess it isn't old enough to be considered heritage - and not new enough to repair.
Caught in the middle again!

Nice record of urban change...fav

[Tracy]

It is interesting and sad too.

[Lin]

love to find these old signs on the old historic buildings. I do remember the Rexall drugstores in our area.

It is so important to photograph these buildings. Lovely shot.

An old one making room for the new. we still have Rexall Drug Stores, but all look more modern nowadays.
