Cans of Iwo Jima

Beer cans, that is, like that would’ve been sold at this corner store before they packed it up and hauled it away. Nice shot, quasiblotto! Thanks for sharing.

Update: quasiblotto has an even better shot that he sent over belatedly. Thanks again, dude.

    i heard it’s going to be a laundromat…but this was months ago when the bodega (which was fucking gross) closed down.

    the one up the street on Lex is closed too, though the Baobab people for a while were looking at it.

    what should go there? both of those 2 places should have something great in it….

    i was thinking a real DF style torta place would be cool.
    or an outpost of la palma.
    or a wine store where everything is under $25.
    or a microbrew joint (Mission Brew? Hipster Lager? Poop-in-my-Driveway Porter? David Campos Draft?)
    Art gallery with a Mission focus
    Mission Food?

    i was trying to convince Sam at BiRite to do a little outpost, but he doesn’t want to dilute himself.

    also, probably a little too imperialist (ie expensive) – whether actually or philosophically – for a lot of folks my side of valencia.

    i guess a laundromat is an OK idea. dull but required.

    for sale sign just went up on that building.
