I was however disappointed to see the deterioration in some other areas of the immediate neighborhood, such as the boarded up and seriously-overgrown-with-weeds place on the northeast corner of Yorkshire and Payton. Also it looks like there's a new bar at the old site of Kavan's on the southeast corner of Morang and Nottingham. I remember when that Kavan's was originally built in the early 70's, replacing the old "Pure" gas station that was there before that. I also enjoyed zooming around a few other streets. It is amazing how even after all these years it was like being right there, with buildings I had long forgotten popping into view and re-remembering them instantly as if I'd never left.
