Description
Ghost Signs Series-Old hand painted signs on old buildings.
Kress Building chain store constructed in 1923 on Long Beach's premier retail street, Pine Avenue. In 1928 - 29, a three-story addition was built on the south to double the store space and increase lunch counter services. Unlike its competitors, the Kress store included a "high-rise" (seven story) office tower. Closed in 1981 and vacant for 12 years until in 1992 the building was restored, then converted into high end lofts.

Love the geometric abstract feel of this composition Denise. Beautiful strong contrasts.

Great shadow and light play really highlights the geometric shapes... Fun to see the old signs too!
