More Vancouver Streets:
According to my friend, this Night Club was started in 1947 by a Chinese Gentleman to get the working girls off the streets in this part of town. Apparently, it worked and they became strippers, etc. inside the Club instead of working on the streets.
Please go ahead and give me constructive criticism where needed! If there is anything that I can change that really needs changing and I can do it in editing - then I will change it and re-post the photo! I promise I won't scream and shout or cry for very long!

Fine exposure on a sunny day, Anne. But I prefer to check that place at night! :D

Wow, i don't know whether what he did was a good or a bad thing. Anyway, you took a nice shot!

@Rags: Thanks Rags: I am not sure either if it was good or bad either! But I guess the women were safer inside the environment of the nightclub than working on the streets in this red light district. Glad you liked the shot - it was so colorful on that corner of the street I had to take a photo. Thanks for your visit - really appreciate it!
Agree with Behrooz. Wow this seems to be a line of it. Penthouse, chick-a-dee; more like men's paradise. LOL!!! Nice shot Anne and welcome back.
