NEGLECTED

This shop suffered from the re-routed traffic patterns in Lake Alfred, Florida not only was the sign NEGLECTED but unfortunately so was the business.

Often times towns make decisions to improve the area and an opposite economic impact takes place.

I love coming across stores like this – when they are still in business.

The general store stands neglected and abandoned. There is probably a mini mall on the new traffic route. So sad!

It seems that someone is still caring for the place though – Looks homey!

The sign is great in its neglected state, but is it me or does this look more like a residence in a senior living trailer park?

Such a quaint, shabby chic type of location…too bad it’s no longer in business.
