Hey, that’s the classic building design dating back to the late 1950s, early ’60s. Are they building them that way again? Or is that a spiffed up version of something in-place for the past 50 years?
Now, if they’d just return to the 1950s, early ’60s product: fresh (if tiny) burgers made of real meat, cooked on the grill as you watched, with the buns toasted face-down on the same griddle. Yum! 19 cents!
It’s not 19 cents, but there is a family owned chain in the West coast of the U.S. called In-n-out burger. They still make burgers the way they did back in the 50s. Ironically, I think they started in the same year McDonald’s did.
There is some excitement in Austin since In-n-out just opened their first store here.
Nice! I just recently found your blog. It’s very inspiring and your photography with consumer cameras shows what can be achieved by someone with skill. I just googled “haiku”. All the best
Makes a great black and white. Lots of neat structure.
Thank you, Marilyn.

It’s a new McDonald’s made to look like an old one. Most of the others in the area don’t look like this.
