Today I went down the Country Club and Speedway area.
This sign, right on Country Club, was for a small convenience/ liquor store. To me, the sign looks like it's from the early 80's and could very well have been standing there for 30 years. The store it self was covered in a non-homogeneous paint job which was a combination of faded yellow and white and looked like it was applied as regularly as the need for it arouse.
This sign was right in Speedway for a closed down gas station completely vacant and surrounded by chain link fence. The surrounding area was covered in graffiti; a cab driver, who was smoking, sitting in his taxi on the lot, told me was just tagged a few days ago.
I love that you are providing commentary on the photos. Love the taxi driver's talk about it, too. Excellent job! This is so fascinating to me!!!
