Do you remember the Armchair Theatre video store right across from Power?

Not really - which years, roughly? I went to high school at Michael Power.

Michael Rooker going into a video store in Etobicoke at 2am, WOW it doesn't get much more unexpected than that!

At the time I had no idea who he was, because I think at that point he'd mainly done B-grade action movies, but my buddy recognized him right away since he was a big movie buff. It sure was surreal to see him on the big screen in Guardians of the Galaxy decades later!

Oh right, he played that blue guy with the flute thingy...

It was in the liitle plaza on the east side of Royal Avon and I remember it in 86 or 87. I think it closed in 1990 or 1991 so maybe just before your time at mpsj.

Yup, before my time.

Power has finally been disconnected and hoarding has gone up. Goodbye Jumbo Video!

Today. Hoarding up. Doesn't look like demo has started.

Not the best pic as I took it waiting at the lights.

Demo now started. If you look closely only the front of the building is left but demo is nearly complete. They should be done fairly quickly.

Demolition is just getting started. This will take a while
