Memory Lapse

 

I was doing some photo organizing this last weekend when I came across this photo I took back in April when I visited Tucson.  This is a painting I saw at the Tucson Art Museum by artist Brenda Semantic. It's called Corner Market and I recognized the building immediately.  So I took this photo for the sole purpose of posting it on my blog along with my photos of the actual building.  Needless to say, I promptly forgot all about it. 

Here is one of my photos taken in 2012 when I visited Tucson.  This old building has been standing on this corner for a very long time and it doesn't seem to change much.


This photo was taken in 2011.  I didn't take a photo of it on this last trip but I did drive past it and it still looks the same.  It makes me wonder if there are any plans to save it.  All the other buildings in this area have been restored.  
I'm glad I saw the photo of the painting over the weekend so I could post it as planned.  Better late than never.

  3. Is it being used for anything or is it just vacant?

    1. I'm not sure but it looks vacant to me. I guess there could be something stored inside.
