Once a Corner Grocery Store (9)
now waiting for a new life (Victoria Drive)
and I would rather see a Starbucks here than this ugly corner !!!!!!!!!
before supermarkets Vancouver had many, many little corner grocery stores in every neighbourhood (the entrance door being on the corner) .... some still remain, but many have been converted to other stores, cafes, art galleries and living quarters - I love them as they take away from the impersonality of the big stores...

This is an interesting series with a million stories to tell. I was making up my own story with each image, how it started, how it lived and how it closed down.....Great work Adele

Well this is a good point. If you can't turn it into something useful. Shut it down. I have had fun writing a bunch of silly/funny comments on your series.I do love the time and effort you put into finding the locations. I also like the fact that the thread olds together. What I do like in addition is that this is not only a story, a photo story , but a documentary. Not may here know how to do these and not many do. Hat off to you and cheers from my heart .

Sicherlich hat hier ein Händler vor etlichen Jahren mit viel Optimismus angefangen, Waren anzubieten. Lange hat er in den darauffolgenden dem Konkurrenzdruck der großen Marktketten und der Einkaufszentren standzuhalten. Leider hat er den ungleichen Kampf verloren.VG Ernst

Ja, so sieht es im Moment gar nicht gut aus, dieses Eck! Da kann man nur hoffen - ganz egal, welcher Art die neue Nutzung sein wird, dass die Umgebung auf jeden Fall gewinnen wird!
LG! a.

Eine ganz schön runtergekommene Gegend...aber auch das ist die Realität...
es gibt so viele Gegensätze, wie glücklich können wir uns schätzen.... das wir hier nur vorbeigehen brauchen.
Deine letzten Bilder machen mich nachdenklich...
wie dicht liegen doch Freude und Leid... Reichtum und Armut zusammen.
LG zu dir Conny

can't have been boarded up for long – graffiti is still sparse… or else some one is still taking the time to scrub it clean or overpaint once in a while – if that's the case, i bet it's long rented/sold again and you'll get your starbuck's in no time! ; )) the sickly brown – don't even know what the exact name of the color is! ; ) – sure is an unpleasant sight! but the dainty calligraphy ; ) "love live" cracks me up… so unstreetwise and out of place looking! hugs, sabine.
