Went for a spin to pick up dog food last eve and saw the wrecking crew demolishing the old Steamship ticket building at the lake beside our local Holiday Inn.
Too late now but always meant to get a shot of one of the cars in the same pose as the below pic of Robert Barg's original '67 Z28 w/ same building in the background taken in the Holiday Inn parking lot while staying here and racing at Mosport.

That sucks. I hate it when historical or memorable locations get bulldozed.
Likewise, there are hundreds of places I wish I had the sense to photograph
from childhood up until now. I try to catch them now, but most are gone.
