Thompson's ex-Garage
Thompson's ex-Garage

Another of Piney, Manitoba's iconic abandoned buildings, located in the centre of this small community. It was purchased and operated by Douglas Thompson from 1969-2001 when he retired. Thompson sold Ford 150 Trucks out of the garage, sold Autopac (public auto insurance) and farmed on the side. I do not know whether the business continued under a new owner before its current abandoned state.

Mrs. Thompson still resides in a house near the garage, one of less than a handful of the remaining older long-term residents of Piney.
