Ghost Sign

This arrow points to a large building a block away which housed Goudchaux Department Store, once THE place to shop in Baton Rouge. Times change; there is no more Goudchaux's, but this painted sign lives on. The old Goudchaux building now houses a Netflix distribution center.

Really interesting photo of passing times

Photography does us all a favour, Diane, because it holds things in place before they vanish. So this is a worthy, interesting shot.

A well captured piece of history.

A neat sign. During my run down to Detroit today we went past where Tiger Stadium used to be. Signs related to that are still up, but no ballpatk. It was odd.

Wow this sign is still in great shape. Nice shot

[Diane]

@klemieux Thanks. That must have been eerie, especially in the fog that was in your shot.
