Pekin Chop Suey House in Chinatown

I was walking through Vancouver’s Chinatown district and I noticed a faded sign on the side of a building. It reads: Pekin Chop Suey House. It sounds very 1950’s American-Chinese, and so it should, as this was the old location of a Chinese restaurant many years ago. The lower half was rebuilt and the core was redone with concrete, leaving the top outer shell original. You can see in the distance the entrance-way into Chinatown from the West side on W.Pender, and the far left corner is just a part of the world’s thinnest building .  The sun was just going down behind the downtown buildings, and so the lighting was just right for a westward picture…….
