Now: September 2024 / Gallivant, a home goods and souvenir store.
NOTE: Sometime over the past 80 years they rejiggered the parking and put a new building where I needed to be for a more accurate photo.

This is my first attempt at a then and now, the angles aren't quite right, a lot has changed in 82+ years. And I don't do Photoshop.

Hmmmm... What would be a good hashtag to feature a series of toots where I have a scan of a postcard, and provide a modern photo of the same subject? #PostcardsThenAndNow is the best I can come up with.
