For many years there was a Harvey's Hamburger and Swiss Chalet Chicken location on 51 Avenue, just down the road from my old shop. The Swiss Chalet closed a number of years ago, and relocated further south. The old building became some sort of Asian restaurant for a while. The Harvey's remained for quite a few years longer, and I often went there to pick up a burger for lunch, back in my working years. Then near the end, just before I retired, it also closed. Recently I drove by and found that both of the old restaurant buildings had been knocked down to make way for a new commercial office development. Someone dumped an old easy chair at the edge of the demolition site and I thought it would make a great photo, perhaps for my Apparitions project. I headed over there a couple of weeks ago, just at sunset, and took some shots with my view camera. I also took these two snapshots on my phone.
