Sunset on Corner Gas - The Souvenir Store

This is the film set of the popular Canadian sitcom "Corner Gas". The set was never built to last but it lasted much longer than expected.

After the filming ended this place sat empty for several years. Then for a while it was open to the public as a gift-shop. That's when I visited and I feel pretty lucky about that fluke timing. The ground under this set was not ideal for building so the set was slowly sinking. Then on November 4, 2016 when the lease on the land expired, this iconic film set was demolished.

 

The bit of good news regarding Corner Gas is that the show has returned... this time animated.
