Almost the Last One Standing

Once upon a time all the properties along the waterfront were fishermen's shacks, but as this area became more and more popular the shacks disappeared and made way for brand new houses. Occasionally though one of the original shacks can still be found. I wonder how much longer this one will last?

Lovely shot of this old shack ant it's neat textures. I suppose it will stand till the price is right ;-)

[Marnie]

Same sort of waterfront gentrification happening all over the place here Babs. I despair.

A lovely find Babs , love the weathered look with the faded paintwork , the hint of rust , the straight lines of the boards interrupted with the patch of repair !

So much character in this faded old door!

[Rob Z]

Waterfronts are not for lowly fishermen anymore.... Sad in many ways....

[Jacqueline]

Love the simplicity, textures and colour!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I really like the weathered wood and latch on this shot. I imagine it's days are numbered but I wish it wasn't so. Great shot!

[Babs]

@ludwigsdiana I think any time they want to sell is going to be the right time. The land alone will fetch quite a bob or two.

[Taffy]

A lovely tribute to this disappearing breed of structure.

[Babs]

@casablanca Ha ha indeed this is exactly how I felt yesterday, my back is still giving me problems and I feel older than this door right now.

@golftragic This little shack is still standing proud along the waterfront in between two huge new properties.
