27-year-old John Burdick, (pictured) a lifelong resident of Derby, said he remembered the building when it used to have a candy store.
Yesterday I photographed a building demolition in the town of Derby, Connecticut. I spent a good hour waiting for the work being done but as it started, I got this image. About 25 residents showed up to watch the building get knocked down. Most of them spent the time discussing their memories of the building and their thoughts on its history.
