NYE 23-24 Cooksville
Just out of frame(purposefully) several young black men were more or less loitering. It made me realise that Cooksville is Ghetto.
Sheridan Mall Target 2015
The retail wars were bitterly fought. Sheridan Mall department store anchor was first K-Mart. When that chain closed Zellers took over. Then Hudsons Bay Co , the corporate owner decided to exit the low cost store format Target moved in from the USA. They spent several years converting their stores then they were not price competitive and pulled out of Canada writing down huge losses. This is a warehouse today while waiting for the mall to be redeveloped.
