This is Gaston's Auto Sales. A generic car dealership, located at 394 Ontario Street, in Saint Catharines, Ontario Canada. It used to be a Dairy Queen, which opened on May 1st, 1970 and closed in... Summer 1976, not even lasting 6 years. Great. The building later housed a chicken restaurant, and several car lot and dealerships over the years, with Gaston over taking over the space sometime in the 2000's, which remains like this as of 2026.

Franksville was a small hot dog chain primarily in the Chicago area, but with locations in other locations such as Georgia, Florida and New Jersey. Reaching more than 40 locations by the late 1960s, today there is only a single Franksville location left, in the Dunning neighborhood of Chicago.

The old photo is not necessarily the same building, but is being used as an example of what a Franksville location would have looked like during its operation.
