Was downtown. Windshield fluid was running low, and I thought to myself: "self, just stop at the corner of Broadway and Main and grab some." Then I realized it's been like decades since the gas station was there. Then I questioned if it ever existed...

I believe it was a Petro-Canada, demolished to make room for the Upper Forty Garry Provincial Park.

Probably improved the Manitoba Club...

Is there any gas station downtown at all anymore? It hasn't occurred to me to pay attention.

The Shell on Broadway is the closest to Portage and Main.

We just need to remove half of the parking, open Portage and Main, fix the transit system, and implement some policies to help/prevent homelessness, and then downtown would be a nice place to be.
