Now you see it, now you don’t

This is what was left of the Mobil station at around 4 pm yesterday

If you drove down Ridge Road today, you might have noticed a big change at the corner of Ridge and Five Mile Line. That long-defunct Mobil gas station is being dismantled. Between 7 am when I went to work and 3:30 pm when I was coming home, it had been almost completely removed.

The construction doesn’t come as a surprise. We knew back in January that the corner has a new owner, who is planning to replace the station with an Express Mart, including at Tim Horton’s.

Thank you to my friend Sarah King for snapping the photo for me.
