And back to Esselunga


And to wrap this up, here's one last view of this cool store. I was about to comment that the glass wall doesn't line up correctly with that column on the right, but then I remembered that the wall along the exterior facade is set back a little bit from the columns so it's just a trick of the angle. And then that made me wonder, have I been wrong this whole time and this was originally covered outdoor space, not indoor space at all? That would also explain the odd ceiling design and the fact that some of the architecture looks more suited to an exterior facade. But I really don't know and I haven't been able to find any historic photos of this part of the station. 

Anyway, that's it for this set (and for Italian stores, until I get around to another vacation there, which will happen some day!). I'm sure we'll be back to something a lot less interesting tomorrow.
