Lane

Back alleys aren't my first choice of subjects but I'm currently scrounging for images.

Brewery Creek

The Brewery now comprises 14 artist live/work studios. Built about 1904 as a brewery that got it's water from Brewery Creek. If the creek still flows here it is well underground now.

During its history the building was a candy factory and an ice cream factory among other things. 

Since it's a little off my beaten path I was totally oblivious to this building for most of my life.

More Mount Pleasant


Sorry, it's not a corner store and there isn't any ice cream for sale. The bike from a previous post is on the boulevard in front of this property. 

This is a wonderful example of the superb effort, notably by the Davis family, that has gone into rescuing heritage property in the Mount Pleasant neighbourhood.
