crumpling corner store



The closed Fair Zone Food Store, at the corner of Gentilly Blvd. and Laharpe St., looking like it's in a Terrance Osborne painting.  The store was somewhat straighter in 2009.
Update on Halloween 2012, this building is being demolished, see the state of things here .

    1. well, I don't know how anybody could rest while they're scared... some people's houses are right next to where cars drive by, literally a few feet from their head. the very idea of it would keep me awake.
