Retired

This building was once home to the largest used book store in Newfoundland. They had over 100,000 books at one time many of them old and rare. The owner decided to sell everything off cheap and retire. The historic building has been empty now for a couple of years.

I missed the sale . . .

    A textural delight. Nice find and capture. I’m sure when professional building painters have nightmares this is what they see.
