Next up is the full before and after version. While I like that this building has survived and looks fantastic today, I have to admit I miss the cool signs on the side of the building.

2200 East Broad Street, Church Hill - Before and after
This has to be one of my favorite pictures that I've come across while doing this blog. This is the side of what I guess was a market at 2200 East Broad St in Church hill, circa 1966. Was this a market back then? Because it's a residence now. The full before and after shot is below. First up is a cropped version, centering on the signs and the two men sitting on the brick wall. LOVE this shot.

This is awesome. And I took a picture of a very similar Dr. Pepper advertisement this weekend in Gordonsville: http://instagr.am/p/LLlWQuGLiN/
ReplyDeleteIt would REALLY be cool if the advertisements were repainted on the building.
