[Suburbia Lost] Rally's - Sharonville

Known as "Checker's" for some, "Rally's" for others - you can't hide what this building used to be under neutral gray paint.




Remember at the beginning of the "Suburbia Lost" project, there was a post entitled: "You Can Tell Area Businesses Used to Be Wendy's" which was a play off of an Onion headline called: "You Can Tell Area Bank Used to Be a Pizza Hut?"

The articles highlight a concept among fast food chains, a theme that's recurred constantly throughout this photographic project: fast food joints are easily recognizable. Such is the case of this abandoned Rally's in Sharonville. Even boarded up with the branding removed, you know what those double drive-thru's were for.

The real question is: what do you turn this building into, if anything? Given how long its been sitting there, no one seems to have the answer.
