Sign, Cruise Motel

2083 Lakeshore Boulevard West

A very early effort of mine, shot with a vintage Canon SLR.  This was all that was left of the Cruise Motel on Lakeshore Blvd west,  c. 2003. Lance Russwurm captured the Cruise before it "sank" - see his photos here.  There were a few motels at this end of Lakeshore, but most have been demolished to make way for condos.
