The rest of the Adelaide ghost signs

Continuing on from the last post with Port Adelaide ghost signs... here are the rest of the signs I found during my recent SA visit.

Firstly, Semaphore. Plus a few more in the nearby Port:






Not ghost signs, but a couple of great old-school Port Adelaide milk bars:













Next, Bowden/Brompton:





 On the road to Hallett Cove (you can't see the sign too well though...):


A great shop on Payneham Road in St Peters:





 And way north in Gawler:

  1. These buildings, although categorized as ‘ghosts’, I find that there is some charm to it. I know of some self storage facilities who have used existing structures for their warehouse. They took advance of the old charm of these structures in order to have a character in the market. I know one company that stores their mobile pods in a facility that used to be an old diner. Since the diner is located near some small offices, it was convenient for these offices to access their mobile pods and storage.
