Down in the old Shaughnessy village there is a dépanneur called Elephant, its been closed for good now. The adjacent building is also shuttered and boarded up, looking like a new development waiting to happen. Its called gentrification, when the old neighborhoods get upgraded to glass condos and hipster cafes. I stood really close to the storefront, on the sidewalk looking at an angle. Cars kept going into the alleyway near where I was standing, there must have been something really good in that alley but I didn't explore further.
