Like a Kid in a Candy Store

A few people thought it would be nice to see the inside of some of the old buildings on Whyte Avenue. So here is one of Melody inside the Coney Island Candy Store. The building itself is not asold as some of them. A number of years ago one of the rare wood buildings that was on this location burned to the ground. When the developers decided to rebuild they went with a look that fits into the old buildings that were there which I thought was nice.
We do enjoy going in here anytime we are down there. If you want to see what the outside of this building looks like go back and check out my picture from Sept. 29, 2011
