Elgin Street / Carlingwood
Allow me a double subject post today. The first subject is Elgin Street. In case you got used to chaos as it was more of Elgin Street got closed today. Below a map showing the new road closures which took effect totay. Click here for further details.
Also in the news, at the other end of town, is the demolition of Sears at Carlingwood Mall. And with it goes a part of my childhood! I remember going there with my parents as a child. I remember the window displays before they were boarded up. Of course we had the Sears catalogue in our home and so looked forward to the Holiday catalogue filled with gift ideas which I would enthusiastically dog-ear oh so many pages. I shall hold onto the memories and forget the building.
