Awaiting completion

Empty - but not for long

This empty store has been renovated, the sheetrock has been taped, and it awaits a tenant for whom it will be completed.

Checkerboard floor

Checkers or chess

The floor of this empty store seems like it is an invitation to play some kind of board game - checkers, chess, or...

Green dragon

Bushes outside 

The orderliness of the roof and clapboard and windows is interrupted by the bushes growing next to the foundation.

Seeing the curtains, sharp eyed readers will note that this is the outside of the inside seen in the previous post.  Everyone else can follow the link back. 

One could imagine a green dragon there:  the open mouth with the branches being the tongue (or flames!), the teeth formed by the leaves, the two curved horns, the prickled hump of the back that sweeps down to the tail, which itself extends to the right and out of the image.

Curtain awry

At the ready

Sunlight through a curtained window highlights the stacked chairs as they await the next social function at this hall.

The outside of this inside can be viewed here.

Store door

Not in use 

Although it is no longer used, the steps and the doorway are periodically painted and swept so they are in harmony with the rest of the storefront.

Plastic basket

Plastic basket window display

This display window that is filled with plastic baskets is at the rear of the dollar store.

There are 45 courses of brick visible on the left side of the window and 46 courses visible on the right side.  That does not explain why the left side seems higher than the right side.

N.B.  The interior of this store, prior to becoming this "dollar store" can be seen here.

Convoluted corners

Door painted shut 

After a building is built, additions are often added.  Some of those additions are used and then not used.  These can result in convoluted corners and painted shut doors.
