For Sale

Today l had an errand to run. The business is located in Old Strathcona. After l was done l decided to walk around and take some pictures.
This building is the old Scona Garage which opened in 1912. The ground level housed the garage where top rated mechanics worked daily repairing vehicles that people brought in.
The second storey housed apartments. It operated like this until 1974. Whe it closed down it became home to the Keg Steakhouse whichever operated there until just a few years ago.
Now it is up for sale. More pictures in my other two albums

I hope someone buys it. Sad to see an empty building.

[LManning (Laura)]

Hopefully it finds a new owner that wants to preserve the history.

I wonder if it still smells like steak.

It looks to be a beautiful building. The windows appear to be relatively new.
