I'm assuming, its late and the photographer assigned to this area was hungry and set up a few shots of the place he ate at. He shot two, one with and one without that guy. I wonder what he ate?
Interestingly this building lasted till about 2007, the exterior looks exactly the same, down to the gutters, sign and lamp. All different colors, and quite boarded up, buildings to the sides missing, no billboard either. They actually removed this building along with most of the block to make room for a giant parking lot.
That yellow sign in the window is a beer ad. I have no idea what those things are on the platter in the left window. They looked like Twinkies, so I made them tan.
