   It was an outside shot of a building with some "CLOSING"     
   signage. It was a clothing/gifts shop.   
      
   The owner decided to close amidst the slowdown of retail.  In     
   this particular case, he was the owner of the building too - so     
   he could capitalize on the retail sales boom at this time, I     
   guess. But the building had been sold, and his deadline to     
   vacate was March 31. Not sure what is destined to be in that     
   building (originally a church) next.
